“Field Of Dreams” is a lovely movie. It is all about baseball but it never shows you one single match or even people playing it for more than a few minutes at the most. No, “Field Of Dreams” is about baseball and people’s baseball dreams. I do not watch sport on television and I don’t know much about baseball but I like it and I liked it when I played it but “Field Of Dreams” presents baseball in such a way that you don’t need to know anything about the sport.

“If you build it they will come” Iowa farmer Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner “The Bodyguard”) is told by a mysterious voice. This leads to him building a baseball stadium in his field and then ghosts of legendary players including Shoeless Joe Jackson (Ray Liotta “Goodfellas”) appear and start playing but not everyone can see them. Ray then meets up with writer Terrence Mann (James Earl Jones “Star Wars”, “The Lion King”) in order to complete the next phases of Ray’s task.

Kevin Costner is good as Ray Kinsella, Kevin Costner is great at playing that ordinary guy type person and that’s just what he does here. James Earl Jones is great as the writer Terrence Mann. The two have good chemistry. Shoeless Joe Jackson is played well by Ray Liotta. Amy Madigan provides some comic relief as Ray’s wife Annie.

“Field Of Dreams” is a beautiful movie with some great concepts about healing wounds and doing what’s in your dreams and it’s in all via baseball. The movie doesn’t spend a lot of time try to show you how the game works but it gives you a clear image of how people can fall in love with it. “Field Of Dreams” gave me an experience that I can’t quite explain but I loved it every minute of it.
