The Rains of Ranchipur (1955)
Director: Jean Negulesco
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Redundant colour/'Scope remake of Clarence Brown's overrated The Rains Came (itself not much more than a transposition of Ford's The Hurricane), with forbidden interracial romance (memsahib Turner and unlikely Hindu Burton) metaphorically stirring the monsoon and worse as the elements turn censorious.Author: PT
