Episode 08 - Rain ManTom Cruise dials his inner jerk to 11 as Charlie Babbitt, a slick L.A. hustler who discovers his long-lost brother is an autistic savant and, more importantly, the one who actually got the inheritance (but Charlie definitely got the rose bushes). Their cross-country odyssey is a quest to answer the big questions: Who’s actually on first? How many minutes till Wapner? And is Vern really Raymond’s main man?In this episode of Movie Cruise, we talk about Cruise evolving into a real actor, weaponizing his douchebag persona so effectively that plenty of viewers still can’t stand Charlie (or Cruise). We run through Raymond’s “Rain Mannerisms” (“‘Course’”, “Definitely,” “Uh oh,” “I’m an excellent driver”), Qantas’s terrifyingly good safety record, and why Charlie keeps making his girlfriend wait in the car. We also unpack that deeply weird elevator kiss in Vegas and debut our new favorite shutdown: “Okay, Rain Man.”Next port of call: Born on the 4th of July.
