FOR LOVE OF THE GAME(1999)
While this is heavily baseball centered, it really
is a story of a man who's at a crossroad in his life!
Great music, great visuals, very good movie, and
really great to hear the great Vin Scully calling
a ball game one more time!!!
There is a little quiz in the bonus materials that if
you take it and get 100%, it gains access to a movie
short called "Slide, Babe, Slide" with THE Babe Ruth!
It's actually really cute, and, not to worry, you can
keep trying till you get them all correct!! B+
From IMDb.com:
A great movie about a great player in a great game.
A pitcher about to retire pitches one last hurrah,
reflecting on his life as he does so.
Baseball is a game to relax as you watch it, and so
is this movie. I rank it with Field of Dreams as great
baseball films. To anyone who wants to remember how
great baseball is as a game and as a pasttime!
