And Marla’s Hooch’s father standing up for Marla and getting her on the train is a wildly good few minutes of film. this movie is filled with tear jerkers.




That and Jon Lovitz' follow-up to break the tension was pretty brilliant.

"Are you coming? See, how it works is, the train moves, not the station."

I enjoy both and could watch either again right now enjoy even though I've seen each several times.

But Field of Dreams is the one I try to watch to start baseball season each year.

"Wanna have a catch" still chokes me up every time.

This isn't close. All I wanted to do watching "League" is throat punch the younger sister.

Can I like them both? Or is that against the rules?
