The Black Sox scandal was a real thing in 1919, and is still the most notorious black mark in the entire sport. Some baseball scholars have said if Shoeless Joe hadn't been kicked out, we'd now be talking about him the way people talk about Babe Ruth.
It’s misunderstood, though.. The players were banned at the end of the 1920 season, after baseball had conspired to sweep the WS controversy under the rug.. The problem was, and it’s misunderstood to this day, was the players were in the pockets of the gamblers.. And they were basically extorted into throwing more games the following year.. And it was fairly obvious at that point..
Nasty business, and it explains why baseball reacts the way they do to gambling accusations..
Shoeless Joe was a great of his time. Nowhere near babe ruth who was a top pitcher of his time along with one of the greatest power hitters ever. Neither that Joe ever came close to. He's a legend though. Sad he soiled his name in betting.
@@RonnieG No s Sherlock. He was kicked out of baseball at 33.
Or Hank Aaron. 😊
Gotta say that the line "Hey Dad, you wanna have a catch" made many men, including this one, cry a little. This movie is so well written and acted that it just gets under your skin, and makes you think about your own experiences, and the possibilities of the unknown. And, having been to Fenway Park many times, as any Red Sox fan should do, seeing it in it's original form, without the seats on top of the Green Monster, makes me nostalgic. This is Kevin Costner's second Baseball movie, the first was "Bull Durham", which is about the minor leagues, and is a good watch too. The cast was amazing, Amy Madigan, James Earl Jones, Burt Lancaster, Ray Liotta, Tim Busfield, Frank Whaley, just stellar.
A little? 😭😭😭
James Earl Jones yelling PEACE LOVE DOPE!, has to be one of the funniest lines in film history!!😂😂
Same scene but it's the spraying him away like a cockroach that kills me 😂
@@debbyemerson3877 yeah I always wondered if it was real bug spray or just water for some reason but if it was bug spray that It'd be pretty yuck! 🤮
I'm sure it was just water for Hollywood purposes but it's a crazy thought I get in that scene! 😲😂
The line of cars were volunteers from the area. I grew up in the area. My father and I are in one of those cars on the road.
Thats amazing!
The ball players that emerge from the corn all know that they’re ghosts and the decades that have passed since their heydays. See the pitcher talking about how it had been 60+ years since what the other guy was bitching about. I think that Ray’s dad knew he was his dad all along, but was letting Ray take point in how to navigate that subject.
My favorite little moments that surprised me with their charm was the interactions with the ball players. I especially loved Joe talking how no one liked Ty Cobb when they were alive, so they told him to “stick it!” Cobb was a notoriously unstable man, albeit a brilliantly talented player, violent, racist, and altogether nasty.
Seeing Burt Lancaster deliver that monologue about what baseball meant to him is one of my favorite sports moments on screen ever. He was an iconic actor, my first Classic Hollywood crush-I saw him in The Crimson Pirate on tv when I was about 12, and his charisma just burst off the little screen in my living room, and the image of him shirtless in skintight leggings doing acrobatic stunts, well, that was equally breathtaking! And yes, it was him doing that, he had worked in a circus before becoming an actor.
I agree Burt Lancaster describes THAT so vividly that you can FEEL it in your soul.❤
In the original script, he doesn't know he is his father. Just like Joe, while knowing he was dead, didn't know where he was etc... but upon pre-screening, audiences didn't like the fact that it isn't acknowledged, so they over dubbed the "Dad" in the final version. I, personally, am glad they did.
And there's a pretty good baseball nugget hidden in Moonlight's only professional at bat -- the way he took and inside pitch and 'fought it off' with an inside/out swing shows that he was actually a good hitter. Everyone looks at that as a 'nice moment' in the film, but it told a bigger story -- he had talent but the medical world needed him more, and he knew that all too well. That's why it was easy for him to walk off the field and help the girl -- it's what he was meant for.
If you notice, his one at bat was a SACRIFICE. Perfect.
If you go back and listen to Terrence Mann's speech at the end, he says people will come to Iowa and turn down that road without even knowing why. So the line of cars at the end isn't because of any publicity or writing Mann may have done, it was just people feeling drawn to the magic of the place.
Ethereal and beautiful
And it came true.
There are so many movies that tell kids not to give up on their dreams, that dreams come true. This is that but for adults!
Moonlight Graham was a real guy, though they changed a few details about him, including moving his death a few years later just because producer Francis Ford Coppola wanted a Godfather marquee as part of the time travel scene.
YES, Shoeless Joe and the rest waited so long to appear because the baseball season begins in spring so they waited until spring to come out!!!❤
OMG, I have seen this film multiple times and seen multiple reviews on YT and this is the first time I have seen this comment. I’m so glad you did because I always wondered why he waited so long. Thank you!
As a side note, there is now a permanent Baseball field at the farm in Iowa where the movie was filmed. Major League Baseball has, for he last three or four years, staged a regular season game there, and there are cornstalks in the outfield. And special uniforms on the players. The teams change, but the site doesn't. ALL the current MLB Players want to play in one of these games, eventually.
Love that! ❤
To anyone reading this, play catch with your dad. Even if in house, grab a tennis ball and toss it around. Dads like playing catch
Not all dads, trust me. Mine didn't, he didn't care.
@@kendallcarstens9194 Sorry to hear that. 😣
May I just mention two things? First.... I am so glad that you finally got to see Field Of Dreams and I enjoyed your reaction to it.
Second.....If I had a daughter I'd like her to be just like you. You are so lovable!
You're too kind
Great reaction to an awesome movie, Sam. Btw, one of the most moving aspects of this movie is that the elderly actor who played 'Moonlight Archie Graham' was Hollywood great, Burt Lancaster. This movie was his final role before he died. So, towards the end when Ray Liotta's character (Shoeless Joe Jackson) told him, "Hey, Rookie....you were good.", it was basically an on-camera Hollywood farewell, paying homage and respect to an acting legend in his role.
I love the supportive spouse. The way most movies rely on false conflict from a loved one seems lazy to me; if your story is good you don't need a sub-par partner to bring drama. In fact a chill-ass partner is FANTASTIC for the story.
Nominated for 4 Oscars including Best Picture but lost to Driving Miss Daisy.
Another movie I'll be adding to the Patreon poll soon!
@@OGBReactsYES PLEASE
This was a fantastically beautiful reaction because you were totally vested and paid attention... really awesome human soul sharing, thank you🙂🙂🙂
I'm not really a crying type of guy, it takes quite a lot in a movie to get me. Field of Dreams is one of my all time favorite films and the a film that gets me sobbing at the end. I loved baseball growing up and spent all my time playing. I was pretty decent at it but I randomly quit at 17 to pursue other things and it's a big regret of mine. One of my earliest memories of my dad, who I was really close with, is playing catch with him in the yard. We also used to go to many Cincinnati Reds games when I was little. There comes a day when you play catch with your dad for the last time and neither of you realize it at the time. My father passed 2 years ago and what I wouldn't give to play catch with him one last time. The ending of this film just kills me.
One of my all-time-favorite films. It is magical and uplifting and inspiring. Fantastic performance by Burt Lancaster as Moonlight Graham too. His last performance before he passed, and IMHO, one of his very best.
Whether or not Terrance Mann dies going into the cornfield is a bit up for debate but I don't think he does. One thing I've never seen brought up is that if you listen to his "people will come" monologue he mentions a couple things that wouldn't be possible at that field. He mentions people having "reserved seats in one of the grandstands, where they sat when they were children", There are no grandstands and certainly not where anyone would have sat as a child. He says it will be a perfect afternoon, which obviously may not be true every day on the actual farm. Not to mention there simply isn't enough space for everyone to actually watch anything on Ray's field. I think this means that the people actually get to experience whatever their baseball dreams/memories are by going into the corn like Terrance did. Terrance's dream was to play with Jackie Robinson at Ebbets Field, Ray's field is definitely no Ebbets field and Mann really isn't in any shape to play major league baseball in this reality.. I think that's what he got to do by going into the corn. The dead can come to Ray's field to play again and the living can go into his cornfield to experience their baseball dreams. Where the hell people would park is the only question.
And also, yes Ray's dad knew it was him. All of the dead players are aware that they're dead and reference things that happened during their lives that would be after their current form such as Joe Jackson being thrown out of baseball, the one player referring to something being 68 years ago, the other noting that he died in 1970 so he hadn't smoked in 18 years, the player making a Wizard of Oz "I'm melting" reference, Joe Jackson saying no one could stand Ty Cobb when they were alive and Dr. Graham knowing he was a doctor and leaving the field to help Karen. I think he only didn't bring it up A. because it's a movie and to build drama and B. I think it plays into what Ray said regarding wanting to go home but not knowing how to reconcile. His dad probably didn't know what to say to him either.
Interesting comment, something I had not considered. Well reasoned.
@@jayjayjames2332 This too is a great point.
I think that Terence Mann is supposed to be a prophet, like Elijah or Enoch, who were transported bodily to Heaven without dying.
I’m sure other have mentioned, but Eight Men Out is a pretty good 80’s flick about the Black Sox scandal.. John Cusack, DB Sweeney, Chris Lloyd, and the criminally underrated Michael Rooker..
The actor of "The voice " has never been confirmed apparently. There are guesses ed Harris, Kevin Costner himself, ray liotta but it's never been confirmed
The ending is always full of the feels.
I blubber booger tears.
I have to compliment you on your new way of presenting the movie, full-screen, instead of cropped. I know it's a bear trying to put something out that won't be flagged by the YT gods. I also have to compliment you on how you accepted so many of the movie's whimsical transitions, instead of logically laying out the fallaciousness of them. I also have to say I was so pleased when you credited the score for enhancing the movie emotionally. James Horner (Titanic, Aliens, The Karate Kid), the composer, is one of the greats of film composing, consistently bringing tears to the eye with his romantic, effusive writing.
Did you know Archibald Graham was a real major-league ballplayer, only having played in one game and never getting to bat, just like in the movie. Also, the story of the lifetime ban on the players was true. The tragedy of that ban was the shortening of the career of Shoeless Joe Jackson, who had the third-highest batting average in major-league history (.356), behind Rogers Hornsby (.358) and Ty Cobb (.366). Nice reaction! :)
Thank you so much! I appreciate your niceness ♥️
So glad you enjoyed the movie! I'm a big baseball fan but this movie isn't really about baseball. It's about missed opportunities and second chances. When Doc Graham steps over the line to the end the tears start flowing. One of my faves! Thanks for reacting to this!
The remarkable thing about this movie is it keeps elevating itself over and over. You think we've reached the plateau where you think this is the playing field the movie will take place on from here on out. But it keeps magnifying that plateau over and over, like a dream that keeps getting better. Don't know if it won for Screenwriter but it should have.
To put it simply, it's a beautiful film. You may have to leave a sense of reality at the door, yet strangely it doesn't seem far fetched. I'm not afraid to admit that the Doc Graham scene always brings a tear to my eyes.
Thank you once again for your reaction, it was another good one.
in the sequel you find out James Earl Jones is Kevin Costner's real father.
Lol
I can relate to this movie so much when he talks about the smells around the ball park and the wáy your glove smells just the live of the little things I'm 43 and I played ball from 5 till I was 22 in college then I coached my son, I'd give anything to go back to those days, when your a kid u can't wait to grow up but when your old u would give anything to be young again, THIS MOVIE IS A UNDERRATED CLASSIC thank u for the rêaction
Check out the movie Eight Men Out, about the Black Sox scandal.
Not to mention “Harvey,” another gentle fantasy film. It’s the one Karen is watching, which Ray dismissively turns off.
i’ve seen this at least a dozen times and i weep every time. so perfect.
The voice didn’t lie… Ray has to wait until spring because baseball starts in the spring..
And you figured it out right after I posted.. Pretty smart, because usually it’s just the fanatics that pick up on that..
I think it’s also timed to happen when they have doubts about the field.
This was the final performance of the great Hollywood Acting Legend Burt Lancaster. His Career was mainily in the 1940's and 1950's. He won the Best Acting Oscar for playing the title role in "The Birdman of Alkatraz". He gave a memorable final performance. There are only 2 movies that make me cry everytime, this film and "The Green Mile". The Farm and Baseball field have become a major tourist attraction in Iowa drawing thousands of people each year. Entire teams come there to play against one another (usually raising money for charity). P.S. My dream ending for the movie "Signs" would be for Baseball players to come out of the cornfield and kill the Aliens with Baseball bats.
That little girl, was my mom in1932. Memorial day in Kansas, across the road from the Old Burial Ground. All her cousins playing ball.
"Caught in afterlife traffic."🤣
If you ever have an entire weekend to kill, check out Ken Burns's "Baseball"...12 hr documentary???
One of my favorite things ever, and I can't hit for squat...
30:21, OK, unless it's superimposing images, Timothy Busfield is a brave and dedicated actor to walk calmly without flinching.😅
Apparently he kept his eyes closed 😂
@@fayesouthall6604 smart!😃
Fun reaction. I love this movie. Amy Madigan is an all time fave and she's just terrific.
💙💙💙💙💙 I live about 90 minutes away from the field of dreams!
Great reaction...totally agree that the musical score really was perfect for this film.
Hi Sam! This movie does resonate with tons of ppl in various ways. And of course the Father- Son thing is the biggest connection to Baseball. I really loved Amy Madigan's role of Annie, most wives wouldn't just flow with this strange- I heard a Voice vibe, but she does lol. Plus, my favorite part with her is the PTA meeting and her getting riled up over Beulah's crap lol. The Nazi Cow line is priceless !😂😂 FYI- Amy's real husband is actor- Ed Harris, famous for movies like- The Right Stuff, Apollo 13, The Abyss, etc. 😊
Great reaction, enjoyed watching. James Earl Jones's monologue about baseball was delivered flawlessly. Legendary composer Jerry Goldsmith gave us a heartfelt score. When Shoeless Joe told Archie Graham "hey rookie you were good.", it gets me because just a few years later Hollywood lost that legend Burt Lancaster. Thanks again as always.🤩
Close! It was James Horner who also did Titanic and Last of the Mohicans. Celtic flair. ❤
@@TheDivayenta It's been a while since I've seen it. I get them mixed up sometimes. At least I didn't say James Farentino did a great job playing Shoeless Joe.😜
Another great reaction Sam. I think I saw this movie in theaters back in the day, so long ago. 😊👏👏🥰
Hell yeah. Let's get emotional up in here 🎉
I’ve always known this as the male tearjerker film. My dad loves it but struggles to watch it since he lost his dad
I love your reactions. I enjoy watching these old movies with you 💜 You seem like a genuinely sweet person.
Thank you 🥰
Wasn't this just a 🤗LOVELY🤗 movie?!
Truely will make you feel good on a sh*tty day.
After the first time I saw this film, I found out more about 'Shoeless' Jackson as I had never heard about him (or the others) before and know little about baseball. Very interesting!
Also, knowing so little about baseball, I appreciate that this movie has hardly any reference to the rules, scores or tactics.
It's all about doing something you love (if possible) with someone you love, letting go of regret and celebrating the feeling of 'the good old days'. I think...
Loved your reaction ❤
PS, I think Terrance Mann died (with a happy hart) when he went to the place where the players came from. Seems logical to me as the players are all dead. No coming back from there...
I love how movies turn Hippies in to mystics like The Blue Wizards 🧙 In Poltergeist Hippies fight a vicious ghost that controlled spirits. In The Big Lebowski a Hippie solved a mystery like Sam Spade. Movies always use that free spirit attitude as the right hero for such fantastical stories.
This is such a wonderful movie, one need not be a baseball fan to enjoy it.
An excellent movie about the 'Black' Sox is Eight Men Out (1988).
It’s not “excellent”. It’s based on truth but a lof of it is made up. The main problem is the whole movie isn’t good. It’s just a basic layout of what the filmmakers think happened based on some facts. But it misses including any kind of intriguing story or making you care about main characters or anything like that. It’s just dull. Like, weirdly dull and unsatisfying. Only interesting to someone highly invested in baseball, and even then, ‘interesting’ is about all that movie could muster.
TERRY CAME BACK, WROTE THE BOOK AND THATS WHAT BRINGS THE PEOPLE
Great movie! Thank you for reacting to this one! ❤
Yep, re the music!! Powerful.
I made a pact with my mother as a teenager that if we either experience something supernatural, we will trust each other. We discussed Schizophrenia being a possibility, but believe what the other person says (As long as it is not dangerous) as we investigate. We used this film as the example.
In the sequel I imagined, James Earl Jones comes back and feeds the crowd with 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes.
This field really exist to this day. And real games are played there. Look it up for yourself. 2 other baseball movies that are extreme tearjerkers are 1. "AMAZING GRACE and CHUCK" 2. "PRIDE OF THE YANKEES ( The story of Lou Gehrig) After 80 years it is still hard to tell if Pride of the Yankees was more of a baseball movie or love story.
This is going to be fun!!!
Great reaction. One of the few movies that can make me cry. TY
There’s a movie called eight men out that’s about the white Sox scandal. My dads cousin owned the farm you can see in the background during filming and it’s still in the family. We went to the sight during a family reunion in 92. I had a catch with my dad on the field
This book banning scene. Wild how it's playing out all over again. My county's board just approved a committee to review library books for bans.
BOOOOO
I look forward to playing catch with my dad, in the hereafter.
One of the biggest Mandela Effects. "If you build it, HE will come" :D Everyone remembers "THEY will come".
All the players remember their lives. They just manifest on the field at the age they were when they played. If they leave the field they go back to the age when they died. Like Dr. Graham did.
1 thing is for sure. The voice didn't lie
I’m from the U.K. know nothing about baseball. This film is about dreams. Daring to dream. I love this film.
James Earl Jones said he envisions a little paper plane flying out of the cornfield a while later..with Terry's story written on it. Terence Mann was just waiting for the field to recycle him.
Much love from Iowa Sam 🌽 thx for all your reactions❤
Children of the Corn is another great corn-related film. 🌽
Oh lord 💀😂
Malachi?..
Another best soundtrack.
Horner was a genius.
13:25 - I must just be slow but something only just hit me this very moment. When the team is leaving - walking back into the corn field - and the one yells, "I'm melting! I'm melting!", he's referencing a movie that wouldn't have been made yet at the time of the whole Black Sox scandal. The Wizard of Oz wouldn't come out for another 20 years. Now, true, Joe Jackson didn't pass away until '51 so he certainly would've know the movie later in his life.....maybe I'm overthinking it. lol
Hello O.G. Bojangles, as the magnifecent Chico Esquela often says " Basebol has been bery, bery good to me. "
When Terrence Mann says he doesn't want to be taken back to Boston, "I'm going with you," he's gonna "GO THE DISTANCE."
Most people tear up hard at the very least. Kudos on no tears.
You should have seen it in theaters....I'm just glad that I had a pair of sunglasses on when it was over & I had to leave the place.
Great reaction, I loved how you were ahead of the characters a couple times. You really connected to the story.
Thank you!! I try my best :)
Love this film great reaction
Shoeless Joe took the money in 1919. However, his World Series statistics would prove he didn't throw any game. He was banished from the game anyhow.
As always I enjoy your reactions, you pick up on things I sometimes miss that enrich the movie for me. Burt Lancaster always delivers. The Birdman of Alkatraz, From Here to Eternity, and my favorite The Kentuckian are so good. See you at the movies!
Loved this!!!❤😊
Hi Sam, nice to see you!😊 This is a very magical fantasy film that holds up quite well over time!🏆 After the White Sox blew the 1919 world series the media nicknamed them the "Black Sox". The 8 members of the team were banned from baseball for the rest of their lives, including Shoeless Joe Jackson. Great reactions to this classic fantasy film, Sam!!!!🎬👏👏👏👏
I live about 40 minutes from the "Field of Dreams". I have taken each of my sons and step sons to the field to "have a catch" Been there many times before it was bought out by investment firms who over commericalized it.
How on earth do you not cry at this movie??
It almost got me at the end, I will say 😅
Love your reaction
Subbed
You are allowed to cry at this one
I know! I sometimes just don’t feel it even though it is sentimental- if you’d like to see me bawl my eyes out, watch my What Dreams May Come Reaction 😂 or Interstellar or Steel Magnolias. I wouldn’t say it’s random when I cry but I feel like it can be sometimes.
Amazing film, another good one is "the war"
There is a debate about whether Terrence Mann had already died when Ray got there. His son was calling and getting no answer, and he never called back and was reported missing.
There’s no debate. Some muppets call die hard a Christmas movie because it’s fun to be wrong.
Is this Heaven? - No, It's Iowa :D
Fun reaction channel. I sub'd 😂. I like reaction channels.
Thank you! Welcome!
Can you review Fast Times At Ridgemont High?
I appreciate your reactions ,I would dare to suggest Jojo Rabbit, it is a great movie, fun, emotional, wonderful and great. I'm sure you'll like it.
I’ve seen it! Great film
@@OGBReacts Thanks for responding, I'm glad you know the movie and liked it.
Love the reactions. Think you are going to far with the screen blur etc
I'm glad you like my reactions-- The screen blur is a way to prevent copyright and keeps my videos up. I've been trying to adjust it as I do each video, but I think it really wasn't bad with this video.
With this method I've yet to get any visual copyright claims on this video, (knock on wood) so I call that a win.
