Morris Buttermaker, a former pro
baseball player, was ejected from the game for attacking
an umpire and now works as an exterminator. More interested
in boozing and broads than baseball, Buttermaker is lured
back into the game by Liz Whitewood, an attorney whose
class action suit has forced the Little League to accept
all players, regardless of their abilities. As the new
coach of the Bears, the most losing team in Little League
history, Buttermaker has his work cut out for him. Initially,
he's only in it for the paycheck, but he and his inept
players have a transformative effect on one another that
is wholly unexpected, and completely remarkable.
剧情简介
比利-鲍伯-松顿在片中扮演的主人公莫里斯是个中年失意的小棒球队教练。更倒霉的是,他的小队员们个个“与众不同”:要么是身形超重的小胖孩,要么是没什么运动天分的笨家伙。很显然,这样的一支队伍难免要屡战屡败,遭人耻笑。但在大家的努力下,奇迹还是发生了。莫里斯的女儿竟然是个棒球天才。最终,这支“梦之队”要和实力强劲的纽约扬基队争夺总冠军,究竟鹿死谁手?
影评&幕后
该片翻拍自1976年的同名电影,当时本片女主角塔图姆-奥尼尔是奥斯卡历史上年龄最小的获奖女演员。在所有以青少年棒球运动为题材的影片中,这部影片可称得上难得一见的佳作,成为上世纪七十年代广受欢迎的热门运动影片。翻拍的影片情节上没有太多变化,最后要对决的依然是纽约扬基队。美国人喜爱看喜剧类型的体育励志片,本片以棒球为切入点,加上经典剧情,想不卖座都难……
