Rain Man 雨人
Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise), a Los Angeles car dealer in his mid-twenties, is in the middle of importing four grey market Lamborghinis.
The deal is being threatened by the EPA, and if Charlie cannot meet its requirements he will lose a significant amount of money. After some quick subterfuge with an employee, Charlie leaves for a weekend trip to Palm Springs with his girlfriend, Susanna (Valeria Golino).Charlie's trip is cancelled by news that his estranged father (whom Charlie has not seen in over 20 years since he ran away from home at age 15), Sanford Babbitt, has died. Charlie travels to Cincinnati, Ohio, to settle the estate, where he learns an undisclosed trustee is inheriting $3 million on behalf of an unnamed beneficiary, while all he is to receive is a classic Buick Roadmaster convertible and several prize rose bushes. Eventually, Charlie learns the money is being directed to a mental institution, which is the home of his older brother with autism, Raymond (Dustin Hoffman), of whose existence Charlie was previously unaware. This leads Charlie to ask the question that permeates the movie: "Why didn't somebody tell me I had a brother?"
查理(湯姆•克魯斯 Tom Cruise 飾)父親去世,留下了300萬美元的遺產。然而令他意外的是,遺產全部給了一個他不認識的哥哥雷蒙(達斯汀•霍夫曼 Dustin Hoffman 飾)。雷蒙的名字查理從沒聽過,這個事件讓他氣憤不已。他決定前去尋找哥哥。誰知雷蒙的住處就在一個精神病院里,原來他自幼患有自閉癥,母親去世后就被送到精神病院治療。查理心中有了計算,他把雷蒙帶出精神病院,企圖騙他出讓遺產。雷蒙的生活習慣奇異,活在自己的幻想世界里,有很多離奇古怪的行為。并且,查理在共處中發現了雷蒙驚人的記憶能力,他試著利用哥哥過目不忘的本領去賭場上試一下身手,贏得了一大筆獎金,使查理足以擺脫窮困生活。而令查理收獲更大的是,他還獲得了慢慢升溫的親情,這種手足情遠遠勝過了他原先圖謀的300萬的遺產。
