    Moneyball
    I could've picked any of 2-3. I saw Moneyball most recently and liked it.

    This is "Which one is your favorite child?" territory...
    Have seen them all, some dozens of times, love them all for different reasons. If I find one on TV, I will stop to watch a little, then move on.
    There are three films that, no matter how many times I have seen them, I watch beginning to end, and every time it brings me to tears:
    Brian's Song
    Field of Dreams
    Bang the Drum Slowly (early DeNiro)

    I guess that makes me a sentimental old fool...

    Also, a shout out to Fear Strikes Out, which was made before I was born, but continues to resonate today, for me..

    EDIT: for lack of proper punctuation

    A League of Their Own
    Could have picked any of them. Tom Hanks as Jimmy Dugan was incredible.

    Major League
    My friends and I quoted Major League every baseball season from when we were in little league in 1990 until we graduated in 1997. We weren't any good by the time we got to high school/American Legion ball but we liked to hit, talk shit, lose and drink beer. We identified with the fictional Cleveland Indians or whatever the fuck they're called now.

    Moneyball was a close second for me

    The Natural
    Major League is the most watchable

    The Natural is the best though
