As mentioned, this is a remake (huzzuh)! To address your point about remakes, as a person who dabbled in Hollywood odd jobs, can confirm that writers are full of original ideas, (there are warehouses full of never-made original scripts). Producers are scared to fund original ideas. Alas!
The sliding with your nails up, he’s talking about the spikes on his cleats. Some baseball cleats, depending on the field conditions will use metal spikes on their cleats instead of the standard rubber ones. So sliding with those up, you’re wanting to do damage. Defense is defense. lol Yes that is the homeless lady from Home Alone 2. Brenda Fricker. She’s in a lot of stuff. And that is Mr. Alright alright alright. lol Matthew. This was such a good movie growing up. It had heart, comedy, comeback story and was a favorite of ours. Gives you the feel good vibes with a nice message. I’m glad you loved it!
Bull Durham is the best baseball movie ever. Fight me... Kevin Costner and Susan Sarandon. Enough said
“Nails up” means he slid feet first, purposely hitting the catcher with the spikes of his cleats
I remember as a kid, being in the car with my brother, his best friend, and my dad, and we would sing the "no matter who we play" bit while my dad swerved the car along. Good times.
watching this i just realized Roger is Joseph Gordon Levitt
Most of the "Angels" games were actually filmed at the Oakland Coliseum. They asked all locals to come out of the filming and to be background seat fillers. We got to do this when my brother and I were kids. It was very cool to see the movie making process, and how long it actually takes for a few minutes of screen time.
that's amazing!
actually this film IS a remake of a film with the same name from 1951
