The Pride of the Yankees

The Pride of the Yankees is an old classic which has not lost anything through the years. I would recommend it to anyone and not just a baseball fan!

Great Movie

If you want to watch a great old movie and enjoy baseball, this is a movie for you.

More than just a 'baseball movie'. A moving, 'must see' film!

I won't belabor the details of this classic piece of phenomenal Americana film-making. I will say that this is one of the best period movies ever made. It not only captures Lou Gehrig's plight and declining health, but wonderfully mesmerizes the viewer with classic baseball scenes, ballparks, and scenery from that bygone era. This is one of the best films EVER made, and easily a contender for the best sports related movie as well. The 'icing on the cake' is there if you happen to like or appreciate baseball to begin with.

A Classic Movie

This is a kind of movie a person can watch over and over again. The actors in the movie were very believeable, and what made the movie complete was the appearance of Babe Ruth in the movie. The movie was as accurate of the facts of the life of Lou Gerig more so than most movie biographicals. Sometimes Hollywood has a tendecy to exagerate the life of a person or persons they are trying to portray. A well done movie.

The Pride of the Yankees

I hate baseball. BUT I would much rather watch movies based on true stories about baseball. My husband now has most of teh movies about baseball and I really enjoy watching them with him.

His talent made him a legend. His courage made him a hero. Gary Cooper is nothing short of wonderful (The Motion Picture Guide) in this moving true story of Lou Gehrig, the Hall-of-Fame ballplayer who reached the heights of stardom only to face tragedy with a dignity that inspired a nation. Nominated* for eleven Academy AwardsÂ(r), including Best Picture, The Pride of the Yankees is a glorious [and] inspiring (The Hollywood Reporter) sports classic. LouGehrig's boyhood dreams come true when he signs on with the New York Yankees and takes the field alongside his idol, Babe Ruth. In fact, Lou considers himself 'the luckiest man in the world until unthinkable misfortune strikes, and he must summon all his courage to face his toughest battle yet.
