Last year, I wrote a post about a movie I should have liked, but didn't. And a movie I shouldn't like but do. I thought of another.
Field of Dreams. There was a summer camp I went to as a kid, and the lady who ran it loved this movie. We watched it a few times, and I've liked it ever since.
I have absolutely no interest in watching sports. They can be fun to play, but that's it. So why do I like a movie about baseball? I'm not really sure. I do like its quiet magic. Unlike the flashy magic in many of the movies I like.
I think I mostly like some of the characters. Annie is great. But Terence, the author, steals the show. He's awesome. Apparently one of his speeches left all the cast and crew entranced. But my favorite moment is when one guy says that Terence is lying about who he is, and he's just laughing. I mean, he probably finds it refreshing that there aren't fans swarming him.
You can actually go visit the field! It's cool that the farm kept it.
