"Penalty Kick" Personal Viewing Essay, welcome rational discussion, if you don’t like it, Brad Pitt’s performance makes people love and hate, and portrays a paranoid and arbitrary character very grounded. As an audience, we are from the perspective of God , So understandable, but the characters in the film don’t know what Peter does? What will be the result? This requires a lot of courage, but also withstand a lot of pressure, to paraphrase a saying, "Genius is always incomprehensible", so he is always the same in the film, you are all stupid, you don’t need you Understand the look! The expression of the film is not like many inspirational sports movies. It is a bit of a semi-documentary sense of sight, so that it has completely become a one-man show of Pete. Basketball), I can't get the emotions in the film at all, and I don't even understand how to play baseball. Fortunately, Brad Pitt doesn't go to the game, hahaha! The film’s story is adapted from real people. It’s worth noting that Billy, played by Brad Pitt, refused the Red Sox’s annual salary of $12 million and chose to stay in Oakland. The Red Sox team adopted his method and later won the championship. This is not like the ending of a normal live-action film adaptation. Perhaps, for Billy, it is important to break the traditional rules. He is tired of this. Set of values, why do we need to change the club at the end of the season? Why follow the rules? Actually, I think, the boss of the Red Socks team is right. He understands billy. He knows how much pressure he has done. This is not a business talk. This is a confidant, just like the top Yale student. Say, "You are not for the money, but for the value behind the money", well, the above is just my yy, the director may not deliberately show the audience a big image of fame and fortune, just An ordinary person, but he has a personality, has ideas, nothing more, rational and irrational, the choice is chosen, who will really penetrate?

Moneyball quotes

  • Peter Brand: There is an epidemic failure within the game to understand what is really happening. And this leads people who run Major League Baseball teams to misjudge their players and mismanage their teams. I apologize.

    Billy Beane: Go on.

    Peter Brand: Okay. People who run ball clubs, they think in terms of buying players. Your goal shouldn't be to buy players, your goal should be to buy wins. And in order to buy wins, you need to buy runs. You're trying to replace Johnny Damon. The Boston Red Sox see Johnny Damon and they see a star who's worth seven and half million dollars a year. When I see Johnny Damon, what I see is... is... an imperfect understanding of where runs come from. The guy's got a great glove. He's a decent leadoff hitter. He can steal bases. But is he worth the seven and half million dollars a year that the Boston Red Sox are paying him? No. No. Baseball thinking is medieval. They are asking all the wrong questions. And if I say it to anybody, I'm-I'm ostracized. I'm-I'm-I'm a leper. So that's why I'm-I'm cagey about this with you. That's why I... I respect you, Mr. Beane, and if you want full disclosure, I think it's a good thing that you got Damon off your payroll. I think it opens up all kinds of interesting possibilities.

  • Peter Brand: It's about getting things down to one number. Using the stats the way we read them, we'll find value in players that no one else can see. People are overlooked for a variety of biased reasons and perceived flaws. Age, appearance, personality. Bill James and mathematics cut straight through that. Billy, of the 20,000 notable players for us to consider, I believe that there is a championship team of twenty-five people that we can afford, because everyone else in baseball undervalues them.
