    Your comment about many current dramas is spot on. Scripts, acting and the rapid-fire editing today often are hyper-dramatic, as if everything is on steroids, is ultra intense and there is little opportunity for subtlety or actors to have time to allow for acting, except for extra intense scenes.

      Blame the viewers for that especially tv shows which carried on to the movie experience. Shows used to be 20-24 episodes which gave it time to breathe and tell background in a precise way but today's streamers complain when each episode isn't filled with action that it's filler. Movies that don't grab our short attention span in the first few minutes are called terrible. Shows that's longer than 6 episodes we freak out and say it's long and at the same time 6 episodes we complain that they didn't set anything up. Movies that are over 1 and 1/2 hours we say OMG even when we have history saying that a lot of great stories have long screen times movie like Ben Hur,ten commandments, wizard of Oz, Titanic,lotr etc etc. hell we complain when a trailer lasts more than a minute. Short attention spans have led to this.

      One thing MANY younger people do not understand today is that = when this movie was made, people talked and did activities with others that caused you to be himan.
      Now you store at screens and hold electronic devices SO MUCH that when you try to get close to others, you are at a disadvantage in some ways.
      Example:family get- together where kids still want to have
      " dumb phones" on them, when in the psst, people tended to interact more with each other personally.

I worked with a client named Kim Peek.. That is who Dustins character was developed after.. I was with Kim 3 times pr week for 2 years.. He knew Dustin..I think he met Tom also went to the opening of the movie with the director ...We went to the library alot .. and he read the phone book and could tell you what was on each page and line.but I had to tie his shoes. amazing human.. He toured all over the world with his father giving speeches on his life..Kim told me all about the movie and Dustin....Look his story up it is an amazing story.. I was honored to know him..

    My 17 year old grandson is autistic, at pretty much the other end of the spectrum. He is precious to all of us.

    The scene setups and cinematography in the motel bathroom scene is very crucial. The ornate mirror (unusual for a cheap motel) is like a window to the past. Both characters are thrust together in an intimate space, as families often are. We see 2 images of Charlie in that mirror, one as if in the present, one in the past. Because of what happens in the scene, Charlie is able to leave his past self behind and we now longer see 2 images of
    Charlie, but only one. Also, we see Raymond in the mirror and eventually he also leaves his past self behind. Both understand (perhaps less fully for Raymond) that what happened in the past is now okay and when they were once separated by that past incident, now they are reunited.
    This was a much more creative, symbolic and artistic way of shooting the scene and allowing the placement of the actors to meaningfully contribute to the underlying themes than simply a lot of cross cutting back and forth between two faces. Also, the lighting in the room is “golden” which historically conveys honestly, truth, gives importance and healing.

    Cruise deserved that Oscar for this one. Not taking anything away from Hoffman. But damn Cruise is good in this, going toe to toe with Dustin Hoffman.

    In 1988 this was the first introduction to autism for most people. At the time if you didn’t have a friend directly affected you probably hadn’t heard of it.

      In the mid 1970’s I was doing a paper for a Psych course in college and decided to do it on autism. I found a fair amount of materials but they were based on research from the 1940’s. There were a few books and scholarly articles from the late 1960’s. Initially a lot of the belief was that it was a purely psychological condition caused by a parenting style that was cold and emotionless or that the natural bonding between parent & child while young had been interrupted.
      But there were beginning to be other opinions, which said that numerous physical reasons were involved, especially noticeable for those who had severe reactions to noises, odors, tastes or skin sensations, which indicated that neurological conditions existed or that areas of the brain which handled sensory processing had been affected. A third group said that it was a combination of predisposition for physical issues combined with psychological factors.
      I think research and treatment today has gone far beyond those theories and it is now recognized that there is a great difference in how each individual is affected although it still seems that both physical and psychological factors are involved but in differing ways for each person.

    39:05 You misheard and therefore missed a big moment of film, you guys would've cried your eyes out. In the scene with the doctor for deciding who gets the custody, when Charlie and Raymond are alone, Ray says "My Main Man" not I'm Rain Man, in the beginning when Charlie and his girlfriend visit him in the hospital Ray considers this guy Vern is his Main Man and says "My Main Man Vern, V-E-R-N" and vern tells the gf that he's been with him for 9 years and he's closest to him, takes care of him and calms him down. Then in the end Ray saying "My Main Man" to Charlie, later spells it C-H-A-R-L-I-E as earlier with Vern symbolising that he now considers Charlie to be his closest and main man. My god, that's just pure Cinema.

Not only is it rewarding in a spiritual sense (I'm an atheist, but I do believe in the human spirit), but it also forces a person to look inside themselves, and appreciate the differences we have as human beings.

    FYI, Raymond was based off from a real man named Kim Peek. He could read pages of a book, one with each eye at the same time as he went down the page and could read books very quickly. He had a huge library that he remembered thousands thousands of books word for word from with like high 90's percentage accuracy. There's at least one youtube video of an interview with him. I think Dustin Hoffman might have spent some time with him to learn his mannerisms, if I remember correctly.

    I've loved this movie since it came, and nice to see people like yourselves that understand the depth and complexity of it. However, it was difficult at times not to be distracted by that incredibly stunning and intelligent woman next to you. Wow! Okay, well great job on your analysis of the film.

    Counting cards is NOT illegal, provided you're not using a device to do so. The security guys in the movie even said "no one can count 6 decks out of the chute." Raymond could. That's not illegal, though damn near impossible.

      It is not illegal to count cards but casinos will ban anyone who wins consistently at anything. Years ago gambling joints used to cheat surreptitiously, now they do it openly.

    He may be a bit of a loon but Tom Cruise has dropped one great performance after another for decades. The dude makes everything he's in better. He even outshined the entire cast in "Tropic Thunder" and only had a couple of minutes of screen time. An Oscar is long, long overdue.

    I wonder if either of you noticed something. It isn't in this edit, but early in the film, when Charlie is talking to the executor of the will, Charlie uses the word "definately" with exactly the same inflection as does Raymond. He hasn't met Raymond, yet. Brothers! Ingenious for the director to get that. I have yet to find anyone that noticed.

    A beautiful film. Enjoyed it when I was a kid and now, as a parent of an autistic son, it has taken on a whole other meaning. That being said, the K-Mart argument when Charlie has to exit the car for a little rant is hilarious. It's a very accurate representation of the frustration/impatience involved in caring for someone with autism.

    As for the savant skills, those were inspired by a real savant, Kim Peek, though he was not autistic. He scored only 87 on a general IQ test but, exhibited all of the memory dexterity shown in the movie.
    For a year prior to playing Raymond Babbitt, Hoffman prepared to portray Raymond's autism by seeking out and educating himself on other autistic people, particularly those with Savant Syndrome.

    There is no doubt that Dustin Hoffman deserved his Oscar for Rainman. But, people rarely acknowledge the awesome performance of Tom Cruise in this movie. The director Barry Levinson said that Cruise's performance helped to lift Hoffman's performance. This is literally the job of a "Supporting Actor" The fact he was not acknowledged is one of Hollywood's failures.
    You are right about dramatic movies now. All dramatic seem to be almost a thriller. Everyone just calm down and make a nice movie, with great acting.

    You know the farting in the phone booth scene? That actually happened. During this take, Dustin Hoffman did let one off in the booth out of nowhere yet reacted in character along with Tom Cruise. It worked so well the director decided to leave it in as is rather than use another take.

    Right, fewer movies like this are made today because the studios know they usually can't get large audiences anymore with movies that require much thinking. You need edited video clips of less than 2 seconds and an obvious (or no) plot for modern audiences.

    This was before "the spectrum" in the eighties. Autism was designated as a diagnosis for severe cases of people with autism. 50 percent of them are mute. Today, we take it lightly with ao many people fitting into the spectrum . But in the 80s and 90s it was no joke many were instututionalized up until them because there wasnt enough awareness

    Counting cards is not illegal; at least in Nevada. That's a common misconception.
    Casinos, like any business, have policies to protect their interests. Counting cards, among other practices, gives the player an advantage against the house (the casino), so it's against the house rules (casino policy).
    And yeah, casinos sometimes take severe action to discourage or punish what they consider cheating, but it doesn't involve police...

    Nice reaction - other great films w autism include Please Stand By and Temple Grandin - the 80s often had these muted A-list films built around a spectacular performance - Hoffman was one of the biggest stars, along w figures like Streep and DeNiro - he seemed to play variations on a kind of perennial adolescent, especially good where we see the calculations of his Method technique - esp comedies like Tootsie and Wag the Dog - other great roles overall include Graduate, Midnight Cowboy, Little Big Man, Straight Time, Death of a Salesman, American Buffalo, Mad City

    Card counting isn't illegal, but it can get you kicked out of a casino. Get kicked out of too many casinos and you can be blacklisted. What you CAN go to jail for is essentially trespassing back on the property. But the act of counting cards itself is not an illegal offense.
