The Rainmaker
Lizzie Curry is on the verge of becoming a hopeless old maid. Her wit and intelligence and skills as a homemaker can't make up for the fact that she's just plain plain. Even the town sheriff, File, for whom she harbors a secret yen, won't take a chance --- until the town suffers a drought and into the lives of Lizzie and her brothers and father comes one Bill Starbuck - profession: Rainmaker.

Everything about "The Rainmaker" is bigger than life, including everyone's performances. It all makes sense in the context of the movie, but it didn't connect me with the characters. They never felt or seemed real to me. They were more like a parody.
