Great Movie!

Rating: Null/10 (22 July 2001)

This movie is both sad and funny at the same time. I just saw it again for the first time in almost a year. Why this was not considered one of AFI's 100 greatest movies I will never know. Tim Robbins as Ebby Calvin "Nuke" Lalush is by far his best role to date. As many of you know he and Susan Surandon meet and fell in love on the set of this movie. Which makes their love scenes more believable. My favorite part of this movie is when the three main characters meet for the first time. Back at Annie's house after a few drinks at a local bar. It is there where Crash tells Annie what he believes in. Such as the small of a womans back, the hanging curve ball, opening your Christmas presents Christmas morning rather than Christmas Eve, etc. And to hear her say "Oh My" at the end of that speech makes me sigh. I really don't understand baseball, but you don't really have to to enjoy this movie. From my personal opinion this is one of the funniest movies I have ever see. I will recomend this movie for any one who likes Kevin Costner. Watch it and think of me at the end of that speech!
