A woman like a scout, very interesting...

I saw a book "1001 Movies in Your Life" written by an American in the bookstore. I flipped it through and saw this one I missed before, so I added it again. It's a must-see movie for baseball fans. Although it is not a great masterpiece of earth-shattering, it is pretty good-looking, with a lot of fun and laughter, and it also shows the ecology of the American minor league team (not the major league). Like all sports, if you don’t have good food to eat, no matter how hard you work, you may still be inferior. In the end, you can only accept your share and wait for it to fade away. Inside, Tim Robins is so young, so silly, so cute, it really can't be connected with his later masterpiece "The Shawshank Redemption".
