  • Richard Barrows as Tab
  • Rob Nilsson as Frank
  • Patricia Ann Rubens as Mrs. Martin
  • Reception

    The New York Times reviewer called Clouds "the dumbest intelligent movie I've ever seen," while Film Threat said

    Though Clouds is not a perfect film, the actors make most of the more stilted dialog work, and even the slowest paced moments feature nicely composed visuals from DP Gary Lindsay. By the time we come to the final message “go and love some more” (effectively appropriated from Harold and Maude) it’s apparent that the film is just a good, solid effort with an intriguing plot, and an impressive directorial debut for Thompson.

    Despite these mixed reviews, Clouds was awarded the "Feature Film Award" at the 1999 New York International Independent Film and Video Festival and the "Premio Nuovo" at the 1999 Brooklyn International Film Festival.
