Good book, good adaptation

The film is based on the original book by Michael Lewis (and indeed nominated for various adapted screenplay awards). After 2000, I didn't like Brad Pitt and his wife very much, but it is undeniable that the couple chose the script with a steady and ruthless vision. The script was revised three times, and finally it turned out to be a remarkable work - at least you have not seen the climax of a sports inspirational film happen in the office of the general manager who is about to leave. It's a complex polyhedron with at least one side that impresses a certain audience. 1.so lucky old dog! This time the economic model finally worked properly (the audience just came over from the big short next door) 2.pitt's character is so well written, if you change the role, you can win the golden man (he and his daughter-in-law) The problem is that the role is fixed, which is too dramatic) 3. The economic model is effective in a large number, but it is the strength that determines the final winner or loser. 4. We will all be told at some point in time that we can no longer play the games kids play, it just varies from person to person, some are 18, some are 40, but sooner or later we will be told of. 5. Growth is more important than success, because the former is reliable. 6.you're such a loser, just enjoy the show. This is my favorite movie I've seen recently, 8.1

Peter Brand: Billy, this is Chad Bradford. He's a relief pitcher. He is one of the most undervalued players in baseball. His defect is that he throws funny. Nobody in the big leagues cares about him, because he looks funny. This guy could be not just the best pitcher in our bullpen, but one of the most effective relief pitchers in all of baseball. This guy should cost $3 million a year. We can get him for $237,000.

[Billy's scouts are dismissive of Scott Hatteberg because he walks a lot]
Billy Beane: He gets on base a lot. Do I care if it's a walk or a hit?
