The Rain People Ratings & Reviews
Solzy at the Movies
Danielle Solzman
The Rain People reflects a period of experimentation as Coppola honed his voice and visual language-just before entering what would become the defining decade of his career in the 1970s.
Loud and Clear Reviews
Megan Fisher
Coppola's touch is impressionistic and bittersweet as the two new Don Quixote and Sancho Panza, Huck and Jim, George and Lennie criss-cross the country trying to find a place where they belong.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
An interesting drama notable for being an early example of feminist cinema.
Artforum
Manny Farber
The Rain People is a fine example of acting and writing that exploits modern dislocation, the mulling, glumness, and revery of people in tight places.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Arty pretensions.
CinePassion
Fernando F. Croce
Coppola charts a perilous new freedom both in people's lives and in the industry
TV Guide
This odd odyssey was not a hit, even though over the years it has been regarded as one of Coppola's more personal pictures and has attained a limited following.
Variety
Variety Staff
An overlong, brooding film incorporating some excellent photography.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
As for Coppola and his world, It's difficult to say whether his film is successful or not. That's the beautiful thing about a lot of the new, experimental American directors.
Chicago Reader
Dave Kehr
Like its main character, the movie hits the road with no final destination in mind, and the manic inventiveness that sustains the early passages becomes strained and weird by the end.
