Synopsis
"Rainmaker" Matt Damon stars in his second movie in nearly as many weeks as a blue-collar brawler who posesses the I.Q. of Einstein. While M.I.T. professor Stellan Skarsgard urges him to exploit his intellect, friendly therapist Robin Williams teaches him about his humanity. "To Die For's" Gus Van Sant directs.
