It's SportsNight here on the Review Review for an in depth film study of "A League Of Their Own" (1990 Dir. Penny Marshall RIP) with our guest commentator, writer/producer/actor and athlete Sarah Eagen! Starring: Gene Davis, Tome Hanks, and Madonna. Coach Jigsaw (Ben) puts us in to discuss Madonna & other good sports, how we endear to characters like Marla for this film (ie Gerry/Garry/Larry/Terry/Barry in Parks & Rec), how playoffs (PLAYOFFS?!) work in small leagues, and the gorgeous natural local team themes of Pacific Northwest sports!
Plot: During World War II, sisters Dottie and Kit join the first female professional baseball league and struggle to help it succeed amid their own growing rivalry.
