Review of 61* (2001) by D S — 11 Feb 2008
This was a brilliant, feel good sports movie about Roger Maris' pursuit of The Babe's single season homerun record. This is one of those movies that just makes you want to cry. It's beautiful. Way to go, Billy Crystal, you hit one deep, deep, way back, and out of this ballpark.
Personal Bias: Greatest opening and closing of any sports movie ever with the inclusion of the Mark McGwire chase of Maris' record. {bias because Mark McGwire is my favorite baseball player of all time}.
