Cinematography, Oliver T. Marsh ; composer of musical score, Alfred Newman ; editor, Duncan Mansfield.Joan Crawford, Walter Huston, Fred Howard, Ben Hendricks Jr., William Gargan, Mary Shaw, Guy Kibbee, Beulah Bondi, Matt Moore, Kendall Lee, Walter Catlett."RAIN is based on W. Somerset Maugham's powerful short story about a call girl who escapes a jail sentence by traveling to the South Seas with the hopes and dreams of building a new life. The film stars Joan Crawford as Sadie, the prostitute on the run, and co-stars Walter Huston as the missionary who becomes obsessed with orchestrating her redemption. In its time, the film shocked audiences with its bold statement about sex and religious hypocrisy, but it is viewed today as a cinematic masterpiece, and as one of Joan Crawford's most powerful and memorable performances. Under the skillful direction of Lewis Milestone, and stunning cinematography by Oliver T. Marsh, RAIN is among the most visually stunning and captivating films of pre-code depression-era cinema."--Container.Not rated.DVD, all regions, full screen (1.37:1) presentation, PCM mono.
