Tears in the Rain

Quite an interesting movie with Sharon Stone in her pre-Basic Instinct days. Its a bit of an old fashioned romance where boy meets girl, but there is something mysterious about the girl's past which may end up ruining the relationship.

Good acting by the mainly British cast. 6/10

My favorite of all time. Wonderful story, casting, photography and especially acting. Sharon Stone was absolutely brilliant, the best she could ever be. All the actors were extraordinary and so far above 'good' as to not find words to praise enough. The very most memorable thing for me is the song 'Safe in my arms again' sung by the fabulous voice of Colette Stevenson. Wish I could buy it as a single! Have bought the movie in every form and watch it about once a month. This movie accomplishes exactly what it is meant to, great entertainment! For me, a lovely escape from the trials of life. I can only say to all who made this, "very well done".

This early film starring Sharon Stone is one that you don't want to miss. Great performances by Christopher Cazenove and Paul Daneman compliment Ms. Stone. This is a very compelling and realistic movie. It takes you through the sense of loss, adventure, falling in love, happiness, disappointment, anger, heart-wrenching sadness, and exhilarated happiness. Believe me, once you start this movie, you won't want to leave for a minute. I can't believe I hadn't seen it before now. Great for all ages and the romantics at heart. It's one of those movies that you end up saying to yourself, "only in the movies" with the perfect ending. I plan to add this movie to my collection in the future.

I love watching this movie over and over again. I thought the characters were wonderful.

I recently (November 2003) saw the movie "Tears in the Rain" on television. It is a great romantic movie without a naked sex-activity scene. I'm glad the television network replayed this 1988 movie. I had previously seen Mr. Cazenove in "A Knight's Tale" and "Three Men and a Little Lady" and thought he had more acting ability than what was written. I'm glad I had the opportunity to see him in this movie. His facial and eye expressions do indeed portray a deeper acting ability. Also noted is his agility and fluid body movement as emphasized in the last scenes of the movie when he comes around the couch to embrace Sharon Stone's character when she breaks down. Mr. Cazenove's acting gave this movie credence. Ms Stone's acting gave an air of "fakeness" (of course I realize that this is one of her first movies and so no cruelty is meant.) The actors portraying Jessie, young Lord Richard, older Lord Richard and older Lady Emily gave good performances and did indeed lend to the believability of the story line.
