Minor League/College Baseball is the theme for this week. "Bull Durham" (1987)\\xa0 was Kevin Costner's first of his three 80s-90s baseball movies (Field of Dreams, For Love of the Game). Matt, a baseball fanatic, liked it more than Adam, who thought there was too much baseball and not enough of the Costner, Robbins and Sarandon dynamic. "Everybody Wants Some!!" (2016) is a Richard Linklater vehicle about three days before class starts for a college baseball team. Similar to "Dazed and Confused", but not as memorable. The relationship of the players is the centerpiece of the film, but both felt there were too many characters. Matt would have liked a little more baseball.

Next: 1970's films chosen by Matt: "The Last Picture Show" (1971) and "Being There" (1979).
