The Rainmaker (1982)

John Frankenheimer takes a few weeks off to return to what he obviously loves most: adaptations of stage plays. Like The Iceman Cometh, this is really just Frankenheimer finding interesting places to put his camera while professional, accomplished actors perform well in a respected play. We do get shots of a crowd supposedly watching the performance, but, of course, they were filmed separately (the crowd wasn’t watching the back of the cameraman for two hours). I can kind of see why the IMDB...
