Warm Summer Rain

Kate, a depressed thirty-something who unsuccessfully attempts suicide by slitting her wrists. Reflecting briefly upon her circumstance in the hospital, she realizes that nothing has been solved, whereupon she vacates the premises, wearing nothing but a hospital gown, a black coat, and flimsy sandals. Shortly thereafter, at a bus station, she requests from the attendant a bus ticket to wherever, with consideration to the limited funds she has to spare. The attendant insists on a destination, or even a direction - Kate spins about, points, and says, "that way". The story then evolves to include Barry Tubb, her love interest, who rekindles her will to live.

It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.

More play than film, "Warm Summer Rain", is an obtuse character study of two troubled people who manage to spend a great deal of time naked, having sex. There are moments that are more akin to an acting class exercise than a real motion picture. Too much of the time we see the actors acting.This film is very derivative. It borrows from many sources including "Last Tango In Paris", "The Terminator", "The Chase", the works of Eugene O'Neill and William Saroyan.Although you can applaud the courage of Kelly Lynch and Barry Tubb, there is very little to admire here in a dramatic way. As a rental, I would barely recommend it.

Warm Summer Rain brings to us feelings we have all experienced... isolation, hopelessness, bewilderment, doubt... and opens a vein of self-examination that asks basically... why? Why me, why life, why love?In seeking meaning and purpose in the midst of social disparity, the couple exploits a temporary pseudo-marriage relationship that allows them intensity. If the dialogue, the feelings, and the interactions sometimes seem awkward, it is in keeping with the ages of the characters...Coming to us in the middle of what some called the ME generation, this film addresses those issues along with post-sixties sexuality and frankness. This has long been one of my favorite Art films and each time I see it I find new symbolism.I swear I have been in several bars identical to the one at the beginning of the movie, and their abandoned house was where I began my own married life. When Kelly Lynch mentions the longing she wakes up with each morning, I know just what she means.So here we have a damsel in distress, a Don Quixote sent to rescue her, some amazing sets, props, characters, and dialogue, and all the elements of a great myth... the conflict, the descent of the hero into the underworld, and the redemption. What else could we hope for?A dance with a five-legged Iguana, that's what.Don't miss this humorous, delightful, thought-provoking movie.* Films similar to this one: Local Hero, The Swimmer (Burt Lancaster), Where the Heart Is (Natalie Portman), Amalie, Harold & Maude.

Barbie is sad. Ken is sad. Together they are happy, and Kenteaches Barbie to love life.The pretentious script, constantly sounding like it's impartingpop-psychology wisdom is made doubly silly when it comes out inmonologues from such incompetent actors, who can't even beconvincing in the less-demanding, non-verbal, gratuitous sexscenes.Insipid, sappy, and shallow, Warm Summer Rain can't hold acandle to Ordinary People, to which it had been favorablycompared. The themes are also completely different, with theexception of the theme of suicide.Avoid at all costs. 2/10

This film is absolutely the best. It takes a woman that has almost committed suicide and a man coming from nowhere and going to nowhere, to meet in a bar in the middle of the desert, and strip their lives bare. Both have been living with illusions in the plastic world created in this country and in a few days find each other in a way most people do not reach in a lifetime...with a perfect ending.There is much nudity and honest (some call foul) language.
