10/10
A forgotten cult classic
7 March 2023
I've always loved this film. It's often classed as an arthouse movie given the director, however it's more mainstream. It has a great atmosphere throughout, with the eponymous RainCity (well, Seattle actually), and it's set in a near future (or is it an alternate future?). Excellent acting throughput and cool soundtrack courtesy of Mark Isham and Marianne Faithfull. I especially like the performance of Divine, not so much over the top, just completely suited to the role. The touches of humour almost make it a comedy, but at its heart it's a story of redemption, love and heartbreak, in a city where it mainly rains or has been raining.
