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

    It can only be said that “technology promotes life”. The reason for not winning the game before that is because electronic technology has not been developed. It is not very much related to the management of the team with personal philosophy; the typical academic style, the photography script performs lines and plays The light soundtrack is like an old man, which is dizzy. It is still the old saying "No orgasm, no matter how good the scene is, you can't make it."

    Atypical sports inspirational. Both the real experience of Billy Bean and the novel are highly praised in management. The subversive effect caused has even shaken the American sports world. The most subversive thing lies in the fact that the team is truly operated as a business, and the corresponding evaluation is made with data and model analysis, and in the end it is small and big. The introduction of news clips enhanced the documentary of the film. Not only Brad Pitt, but Jonah Hill also gave a completely different performance from the past.

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.
