Slightly Off Topic...

Posted By: Dan Bretta

The Natural is a fine movie, and definitely one of my favorites. It seems to blend many of baseball's myths into one film. It is vastly different from the book. The book is excellent and Roy Hobbs is much more human. His faults are explored in detail and he comes off as rather pathetic. I won't say more in case there are others reading this that will read the book someday.

My favorite baseball movie is "Eight Men Out". Probably because it is placed in a time that is my favorite era in baseball and while not completely accurate is much more accurate than most baseball movies that I have seen.
