    Field of dreams, my favorite, then dances with wolves, now Yellowstone, that shows the world God created, the heritage of the American Indian, what a beautiful idea. None of these movies could ever be redone. Nobody could ever touch these. Can anyone else wait to here, Buddy!!!!. The whole cast. Kevin is a amazing actor with a beautiful heart. Keep up the good work.

    The first time I saw the movie I thought it was the dumbest movie I have ever watched, I was playing baseball in college, a pitcher none the less. I was playing catch with my Dad all the time. The second time I watched it, my dad had long passed, I cried like a baby. I have to get to that field one day.

      I live in NM. Been there 3 times now on my way back to Ohio where my 98 year old dad lives and a huge baseball fan his whole life. He even played during WWII on a team in Virginia before being shipped to Germany. The last time I visited I took my Dad on our way back to Ohio from Omaha. He had no clue where we were headed. Told him we were taking a back road on the way to Chicago. The day we pulled into the field there were 100’s of people there. Caught me off guard but it was “reenactment day” with the Black Sox playing a game. One of the best memories I will ever have being there with him. The only thing I regret we couldn’t walk out onto the field so could take a picture of him walking out of the corn. Wished I could have thrown the hardball one more time with him.

    I idolized my dad. We loved the movie. I was a kid when it came out.
    I lost him last year. I just realized that we won’t be able to go now. Sitting here, in his rocking chair, I can’t believe he’s gone.
    What a trip it would have been. I just wanted to have a catch one more time. Would have been so nice. I love you dad.

Every time I watch Field Of Dreams the tears flow as I think about all those things I would have said to my Dad, my Pops, my Father, my Friend, and my Buddy. I'm seventy now but I still remember the Man who would have done anything for me, his son, his buddy.

    I lived a year near Dyersville, IA. There is also one of most beautiful Basilicas in the country there (St. Francis Xavier), and I always thought that the Basilica inspired the line, "Build it and they will come." As there is no reason such a small town should build such a huge and magnificent Basilica, except--Build it and they will come. This movie was made the year after I moved away. The movie is great because it opens the completely mundane and natural to the supernatural, and makes faith real.

      Of course I’m glad the field still exists today, and happy to have watched the game last night, but a little part of me was disappointed in the changes made to field. The original field reminded me so much of my days as a kid, when my friends and I played baseball on fields that looked so much like the original one. The older lighting, the sparse bleacher seats, the old backstop etc...I just feel the modernization of it lost a little of those special memories. I did feel a little bit of that nostalgia last night when Tim Anderson hit the walk off home run, maybe you know this, but guess who was the first White Sox player to hit a walk off HR against the Yankees.........that’s right......shoeless Joe Jackson.

I walked out to the corn, looked back at the field and cried. I was 64 that day and gazed at a baseball field, standing in between rows of corn and cried. I doubt any movie past or future will have that effect on myself or any other father or son. My Dad had passed the April before this movie was released.

    It is obvious that Kevin Costner has played some baseball from the way he catches the ball, in Field of Dreams, Bull Durham and For Love of the Game. He just puts his glove out and the ball just sticks. So casual and smooth, really good to watch.

    As a kid, more than 30 years ago, my dad and my older brother would bond over sports, they would talk baseball and football. Me, I didn’t like sports, I didn’t get it. There was little if any common ground that me and my father (who was a Sunday father, my brother and I were raised by our mother, they divorced when I was like 3) could find. In 1990, when I was eleven, I saw Field of Dreams and was moved. And I got it, baseball I mean. Almost simultaneously, it was announced that my home state of Colorado would get its own MLB team (who wouldn’t actually play until three years later, the Colorado Rockies, my team). I fell and hard for baseball, for it’s beauty, simple complexity, it’s history and just how American it all felt. It was, and remains today the only sport I love, and I when I say I love it, I truly adore it. It became something me and my father could talk about, bond over. I loved hearing about his childhood, growing up in the ‘40s and ‘50s in Cincinnati, cheering on the Reds. He taught me how to bat, throw (I had and have a noodle for an arm, unfortunately) the rules of the game. He and I would play catch. My father, brother and I would go to minor league and then years later major league games and we’d all exercise our love for this game. Today I’m 40 and my dad is 78. Every time I see him, we occasionally talk about politics (we’re both politically aligned) but mostly, even here in the off season, we talk baseball. During the season we sometimes go to a Rockies game or two.
    Finding common ground with my dad where there wasn’t really any before has meant everything. I owe much of it to this movie. And the world’s most beautiful game.
    PS I haven’t had a catch with my dad in almost 19 years. He’s still here, there’s still time, I hope.
