See attached 5 second film clip from the movie "Mind Hunters" (Val Kilmer, Christian Slater, Patricia Velasquez). It is a clip where the team is in the rain. I am interested in opinions on whether the actors are actually in rain, or especially if the "rain" is in fact CG (computer generated) rain, or perhaps a combination. 
It almost looks as though there is just a sheet of rain in the foreground, but very little rain actually striking the actors. I am wondering if a similar look could be achieved on a budget film with CG rain, some light rain sprinkled on actors with simple cheap water hoses, and of course soak down the ground and actors beforehand.

I will have to redo it later using Sony Vegas. I had done a quick cut of that clip out of the movie using avidemux in linux; I will redo it later today and save as a Quicktime .mov or Windows .wmv file.
