Movie #2171 "Cloudburst" (netflix - movie) Based on Fitzgerald's stage play with the same name, I chose to see it because olympia Dukakis died recently, and I have always enjoyed watching Brenda Fricker. But this film was a huge disappointment. It had a lot of unnecessary nudity in it and crass language --- I never warmed up to the main character and not much happened in the film --- story is flimsy. I did like Fricker's character and the young hitchhiker, but the women's plight to be together was ruined for me because I wasn't emotionally drawn into the film by the main character. I give it 2.5 --- cinematography was stunning of Canada in many scenes. I don't recommend at all.
