Jimmy Dugan : Evelyn, could you come here for a second? Which team do you play for?
Evelyn Gardner : Well, I'm a Peach.
Jimmy Dugan : Well I was just wonderin' why you would throw home when we got a two-run lead. You let the tying run get on second base and we lost the lead because of you. Start using your head. That's the lump that's three feet above your ass.
[Evelyn starts to cry]
Jimmy Dugan : Are you crying? Are you crying? ARE YOU CRYING? There's no crying, there's no crying in baseball. Rogers Hornsby was my manager, and he called me a talking pile of pigshit. And that was when my parents drove all the way down from Michigan to see me play the game. And did I cry? NO. NO. And do you know why?
Evelyn Gardner : No, no, no.
Jimmy Dugan : Because there's no crying in baseball.

That was the first movie that came to mind for me. Miserable pan 'n scan


Walter Harvey : You kind of let me down on that San Antonio job.
Jimmy Dugan : I, uh, yeh, I, uh... I freely admit, sir, I had no right to... sell off the team's equipment like that; that won't happen again.
Walter Harvey : Let me be blunt. Are you still a fall-down drunk?
Jimmy Dugan : Well, that is blunt. Ahem. No sir, I've, uh, quit drinking.
Walter Harvey : You've seen the error of your ways.
Jimmy Dugan : No, I just can't afford it.
[giggles]
Walter Harvey : It's funny to you. Your drinking is funny. You're a young man, Jimmy: you still could be playing, if you just would've laid off the booze.
Jimmy Dugan : Well, it's not exactly like that... I hurt my knee.
Walter Harvey : You fell out of a hotel. That's how you hurt it.
Jimmy Dugan : Well, there was a fire.
Walter Harvey : Which you started, which I had to pay for.
Jimmy Dugan : Well, now, I was going to send you a thank-you card, Mr. Harvey, but I wasn't allowed anything sharp to write with.

Heh, this was on HBO last night. Probably why someone brought it up on here... Tom Hanks is awesome in this movie, as he is in most everything.

Holy shit I thought I was the only one that was bothered by that!


That reminds me of an old Benny Hill skit where he parodied an old Cinemascope western being shown on TV.

The "camera" kept panning back and forth from left to right trying to get whomever was talking on the screen at the time. It couldn't keep up, so all you saw have the time was some bushes and cactus. Very funny skit. I'd love to see it again.

I love this movie, haven't seen it in a long while but this thread certainly brings back good memories. Hanks was great.
