How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A mythic baseball odyssey that treats its underdog hero as a tragic, almost supernatural figure, less a sports film than a meditation on second chances and the cost of pursuing an impossible dream. Visually stunning and operatically earnest, it unfolds with the weight of fate.
