Review of The Natural (1984) by Bill Cosford for Miami Herald — 19 Jun 2008
Levinson doesn’t seem to care about redemption, guilt, or any of that other nonsense. He wants to make “the great American baseball hero movie.” He wants to say something about old neighborhoods and fathers and sons playing catch in the late summer evening.
The cinematography is lush, the Randy Newman score is epic. The period detail and baseball scenes are top notch.
