The most influential film on my life

Rating: Null/10 (22 September 2002)

If there was one single film that influenced me the most while a young boy it had to have been The Natural. I was 10 years old when it was released and i thought the film was magical. It motivated me enough to join a summer little league baseball team. This film made me want to see what i could do in baseball. Although i was only an average ball player at best, I'll always remember this film as one of my favorites of all time. Robert Redford remains my favorite actor of all time and i have enjoyed many of his great films over the years. If you watch The Natural and don't see the magic of human emotions and dreams then there has got to be something wrong in you! I have yet to see a film about Baseball that conveys the spirit of the game as The Natural perfectly accomplishes.
