The old saying goes that April showers bring May flowers, and while the early part of the week had some showers, the preceding weekend saw the Potomac cherry blossoms come into bloom. So I guess here in D.C. we get to have our cake and eat it too. (Or we get away with too many mixed up metaphors.)
Anyways, this is traditionally the rainy season, and the word 'rain' shows up in a lot of titles from the 80's. Songs like "Rain" by The Cult, "Red Rain" by Peter Gabriel, "Here Comes The Rain Again" by The Eurythmics, plus a band called Rain Parade, and that's just getting started. Movies had the word 'rain' in the title as well, with the most obvious being Prince's "Purple Rain." Another 80's movie with 'rain' in the title pairs Dustin Hoffman with Tom Cruise. What's the name of the film?
Bonus Question: Michael Douglas starred in an 80's movie with 'rain' in the title. It's plot focused on the Japanese Yakuza and it was largely shot in Japan. What was the name of this film?

I think the answer is Rain Man. Im not totally sure about the bonus question.
That is correct. The answer is Rain Main. And the answer to the bonus question is: Black Rain.
