Editorial Reviews

RAIN is the story of a 19-year old African American girl who lives in the inner city projects with her younger sister, her older brother and their mother. Her sister becomes involved with gang members, is drugged at a party and then sexually explicit photos are taken of her and used for blackmail. Rain tries to intervene but is unsuccessful and ultimately witnesses her sister's murder; thus becoming a threat to the gang leader. Rain’s mother secretly contacts what turns out to be Rain's real mother who is white. Rain’s biological mother reluctantly agrees to protect her and Rain is placed in the home of her grandmother, a wealthy white woman. Rain is placed in a private boarding school for the gifted which culminates into Rain's emergence as a talented singer and musician.

I loved it! I sincerely hope they will make more V.C. Andrews movies and mini-series! The movie was excellently done; wonderful music score; and perfect casting. And it makes you want to read the entire series.

A captivating story and powerful performances make RAIN one of the best films of the year. Prepare for a creative twist on the "COMING OF AGE" story infused with an unforgettable soundtrack. Don't let this opportunity pass you by, experience RAIN for yourself.

5.0 out of 5 stars Adoption triangle comes full circle, July 3, 2007

By

This review is from: Rain (DVD)

I enjoyed watching VC Andrews' RAIN on DVD. I am a long time fan of VC Andrews and Andrew Neiderman's work, but being an adoptive mom made me need to see this story come to life, and I was not disappointed.
I read the four book series that inspired the DVD and feel that the story was written the way it should be written. When a person who has been adopted is suddenly plunked down amongst her birth roots, it must be a scary as well as beautiful thing to deal with.
I have been through this with my bi-racial adopted daughter and I was satisfied with how this delicate subject was handled in fictional form. Bravo! And thanks a million! I am going to share this with my daughter, Star. Star, Rain...the universe is a wonderful place when and only when you find out who you really are.
