Directed by Diedra Celeste Miranda A classic story of faith, hope and dreams. Set in a time of a paralyzing drought in Depression-era America, The Rainmaker tells the story of a pivotal hot summer day in the life of plain Lizzie Curry, whose father and two brothers are worried as much about her marriage prospects as they are about their dying cattle. Lizzie Curry finds herself falling, against her better judgment, for a sweet-talking traveler who promises to bring rain to her family's ever-dry Texas town. The rainmaker also turns his magic on the girl as he persuades her that she has a very real beauty of her own. A warm, funny, touching romp. Awards, Accolades, Adaptations Running Time: Approx 2 hours with intermission
The Rainmaker was adapted into the popular 1956 film starring Burt Lancaster and Katharine Hepburn.
