Agreed, it's a wonderful film, it's right up there alongside the best imo.
Suburban Robot That Monitors Reality

It makes my top ten favorite baseball movies despite so many familiar elements right down to "the big game" climax. I never even knew there had been an AAGPBL until I saw this.

Field of Stupidity is THE worst baseball movie EVER made. There are dozens better. Tops is The Natural. Even the worst of the Major League movies is far better than that cornfield trash. Kevin Costner should seriously repent of it after doing the brilliant Bull Durham.

One of, yes. For me the all time best is Field of Dreams. Could be due to gender (I'm male), not because this movie is women's baseball, but because of the son/dad dynamic of FOD.

Not just one of the best baseball movies.
One of the best sports movies.

Throwing the world series? You obviously think she dropped the ball on purpose, she didn't. If she wanted to throw the game why wouldn't she of just struck out instead of driving home the leading run in the previous half inning?

I would agreeexcept for that ending. Dottie throwing the world series on account of her immature, jealous sister's poor little feelings ruined the whole thing for me. Just ugh. Dotted was SO selfish at the end. She failed her entire team when she threw the game, and the fact that she was smiling at the end Sigh. I still get angry because right up until that ending I LOVED the movie. Such a shame. There's no crying in baseball. If dottie's stupid lil sister couldn't take losing to her older sister, she should never have played the sport. And if dottie couldn't set aside her feelings towards her sister and play with all she's got she should've never joined up. They're both idiots in the end. Just my opinion, guess you can tell I feel strongly about this, lol.

so agree O.P. ! No matter how many times they run this movie on cable, I will watchand laughand cry each and every time.
