The bitter-sweet, funny, and perceptive Let's Talk About the Rain – in which two disparate sisters are reunited following the death of their mother, bringing to the fore long simmering resentments between family and extended family members – is another decidedly and delightfully grown-up collaboration from the husband and wife writing/acting team Jaoui and Bacri.
