Highly recommend renting the new documentary Fastball narrated by Kevin Costner. Really cool look at how important the fastball is to baseball and how they went about trying to find out how fast pitches were thrown before the advent of the radar gun. I think you'l be surprised at who they interview and talk about as some of the hardest throwing pitchers of all time.

While Kevin Costner is in good movies. Am I the only one who thinks he's a HORRIBLE actor? I mean I think my 3.5 year old son has more range than him.

You obviously haven't seen Mr. Brooks, which is a big mistake.

Costner was excellent in "No Way Out."

I think both are right - Like Gary Cooper, he is not a naturally gifted actor (as in disappearing into the role) but he has a talent for finding roles in which his acting persona is perfect (Bull Durham, Tin Cup, No Way Out - and yes, Mr. Brooks).
As a result, when he is in his comfort zone he can give great performances but when he's outside it he can be horrible (Waterworld, that painful Vegas movie where he plays the Elvis impersonator-criminal, and an otherwise great film that he almost destroys, Thirteen Days.) Can you tell I teach film? |
