Bull Durham review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 12/19/12
"Crash" Davis (Costner) is a wise veteran helping out a wild cocky Ebby LaLoosh (Robbins). A peculiar girl named Annie (Sarandon) gets to know the two men who plays for the Durham Bulls. Simple premise yet the screenplay and soundtrack were wonderful. Chemistry between Robbins and Costner good, though Crash seems to be like the Yoda of baseball. Certain scenes kind of dragged. Had some steamy sex scenes and some characters were too weird ala members of The Cleveland Indians from a comedy flick. Best lines: Annie - "The world is made for people who aren't cursed with self awareness." Crash - "Why do you get to choose? I mean, why don't I get to choose, why doesn't he get to choose?" Bull Durham is a baseball romantic drama with touches of slight humor and symbolism's of the game and life.
