The Rain People

“Rain people are very fragile…one mistake in love and they dissolve.”

Natalie Ravenna (Shirley Knight) is a housewife who learns she is pregnant, then leaves her husband and drives out of town without telling anyone where she's going. Francis Ford Coppola puts her on the road, where she crosses paths with Jimmy Kilgannon (James Caan), a hitchhiker she can't quite send away. Running from a life she chose, she has to work out what she owes the people she left and what she owes herself.
