#429 - The Rainmaker
The Rainmaker is a film based off a novel by John Grisham and is directed by legendary filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola. The film tells the story of a new lawyer who takes on a large insurance firm. His only help is a man who has failed the bar exam six times. I have yet/ to read the novel so I am not sure how accurate the film is to the novel. The casting department with having most of the actors in the film are at least in their 40s+ and Damon is obviously in his 20s or early 30s at the time of the film. The acting on the part of these very seasoned actors is amazing and Damon fake acting in the film is incredible. It doesn't have the same fell of most Grisham novels with thriller aspects to it. I give it a 4/5 stars.
