Maybe many of us were unfamiliar with the thing called autism until we watched the movie Rain Man, and we didn't even know what it was... The story that you will watch with the wonderful performances of Dustin Hoffman and Tom Cruise is about the two brothers who grew up with completely opposite characters and lived together after years. Charlie Babbitt (Tom Cruise) is a young harpoon lad living in Los Angeles and lives his life dependent on finances. Charlie's business hasn't been going well lately and he loses his family members one by one. Finally, he attends his father's funeral and learns that he has a brother as a result of his negotiations for inheritance affairs. His brother Raymond actually has autism and needs constant care. Charlie is not willing to let go of the legacy that his father did not give him, and they kidnap his brother from the clinic where he stays and go on a trip to the whole country.
