Thoroughly disillusioned by the Vietnam War, John, a journalist (
Michael Moriarty), turns to heroin smuggling. Acting as John's go-between is the equally burnt-out Ray (
Nick Nolte), who delivers the narcotics stateside to the journalist's wife, Marge (
Tuesday Weld). Soon, however, Ray and Marge are on the lam, chased down by the minions of crooked narcotics agent Antheil (
Anthony Zerbe). Who'll Stop the Rain? was based on Robert Stone's award-winning novel Dog Soldiers. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
