Review of The Natural (1984) by John M — 10 Jul 2012
Beautifully made, and a film that helps you remember that there was a time when Barry Levinson was a great director. Hey, at least he had a good period at one point. Other directors can't say the same! Direction, cinematography and film score are the stars here.
The overt, heavy-handed melodrama hurts the film, stopping it from being a true classic.
