1992 From Jon Lovitz’s hysterical appearance during the film’s opening minutes, to the show’s teary finale, Penny Marshall’s 1992 movie about women’s professional baseball the movie is a joy. Geena Davis is amazingly agile as the league’s star player, and Tom Hanks is suitably ignoble as the team’s sullen coach. Using a sibling rivalry and the effects of World War II as its primary dramatic devises, the film combines humor, historical trivia, and the thrill of baseball to create a fully entertaining, fictional tale of the league’s first year. |
