Product Description

It's a home run with this hilarious and beloved comedy, starring Tom Hanks, Geena Davis and Madonna. With baseball lineups and locker rooms left empty during World War II, the newly-founded All-American Girls Baseball League brought talented women to the big leagues—and brought fans to the stands. The indomitable Dottie Hinson (Davis) finds herself leading a rag tag group of players who end up winning over the heart of their has-been coach, Jimmy Dugan (Tom Hanks). Lori Petty, Rosie O’Donnell and Jon Lovitz round out the all-star roster. Based on the true story of the pioneering women who blazed the trail for generations of athletes.

Set Contains:

Like the film, the two-disc special edition of A League of Their Own is a family affair. Director Penny Marshall and her daughter Tracy Reiner (who played Betty "Spaghetti" Horn) are on the group commentary track along with Lori Petty (Kit Keller) and Megan Cavanagh (Marla Hooch). Then Marshall, her brother Garry (who played league owner Walter Harvey), and Reiner are among the substantial contributors, along with Geena Davis, Rosie O'Donnell, and others, to the new 52-minute documentary. (Tom Hanks and Madonna appear briefly in older interviews.) Both features offer substantial insight into the making of the film, discussing baseball boot camp, Penny Marshall's style ("Penny doesn't call 'Cut' for like nine years"; "No, I don't call cut because you never know what's going to happen."), and how the present-day ballplayers were older actors with the younger actors' voices dubbed in. None of the 15 deleted scenes was crucial to the film, but some are substantial and well worth watching--Kit Keller has a bar showdown, Hanks and Davis's characters have a scene together that also helps explain a later scene, and there's a Women's World Series subplot involving Marla. The film is viewable in either widescreen or full-screen on a double-sided disc, and Madonna's video "This Used to Be My Playground" makes its DVD debut. The features fall a little short on providing historical perspective, so it's too bad they don't include the League of Their Own documentary, which was packaged with the film in one of its VHS editions. --David Horiuchi

A portrayal of the ultimate betrayal

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on May 26, 2022

Verified Purchase

Geena Davis is a very appealing actress. This makes it harder to discern what an awful person her character in this movie is. But at the very beginning of this movie we are given a strong hint. Dottie, played by Davis, is going on a trip and admonishes her young grandchildren thusly: to the older one she says, you’re older so be kind to your little brother; to the younger, referring to the basketball game they are playing, she says “kill him”. This passes quickly, but it should give the viewer a warning.

For context, this movie takes place during World War II, when Major League baseball was curtailed as many of the players were drafted or enlisted. To fill the void, girls’ teams were recruited. (I call them girls, although they were grown women, some of them married, because that’s how they are called and treated in this movie, even being required to wear, not normal baseball uniforms, but very short skirts like cheerleaders.) We follow the teams, and especially Dottie and her younger sister Kit. We see, as does everyone in the movie, that the sisters have a troubled relationship, Kit intensely jealous of her older sister because Dottie is taller, prettier, a much better athlete, and married to a very good looking young man (he’s abroad in the Army).

In my reviews, I take great pains to avoid spoilers, but reviewing the most significant parts of this movie requires spoilers. So if you have not yet seen this movie, and intend to, please don’t read further until you have seen it.

SPOILERS SPOILERS SPOILERS

Dottie is the star catcher and hitter for her team. Kit pitches but doesn’t hit so well. Their team, the Peaches, does well enough to reach the World Series. By that time, Dottie has left for home with her husband who has been discharged due to injury, and Kit has been traded to another team. In the World Series the games are tied 3-3, so we see the final deciding game. As the Peaches are taking the field, Dottie turns up suited to catch. The manager, Jimmy (Tom Hanks), is totally surprised, but says, OK, she can catch.

Now right here, the film both becomes ridiculous and loses its moral compass. In organized baseball at any level, the number of players allowed to a team is fixed and published. Dottie, who did not play in the first 6 games, is obviously not on the roster. If Jimmy wants to add her to the roster, he cannot just allow her to take her position, he must inform the lead umpire of the change – that is, who is being removed from the roster, and who added. This will then be announced over the PA system so people in the stands can correct their programs. Jimmy does not do this. He just lets her catch; not possible.

But consider the moral issue. What happens to the girl who was scheduled to catch? Undoubtedly her family and friends have traveled from afar to watch her catch the seventh game in a World Series. How does she explain the change to them? At this point, one can only conclude that the manager is a monster – but Tom Hanks can’t be a monster, so what is happening?

Even worse, Dottie’s sister, Kit, is pitching for the opposing team. Will Dottie, knowing Kit’s inferiority complex, be willing to hit a home run against her, making her removal likely? If Jimmy wants to add Dottie as a potential pinch hitter or perhaps substitute if the scheduled catcher is injured or otherwise needs to be replaced, and can spare someone else, perhaps this would make sense. But as it is done, it is not only outrageously unfair and unfeeling, it is virtually suicidal. I have coached baseball teams in summer camps, and I would never allow anything like this to happen, and neither would any of the coaches on the teams we opposed.

Then we come to the ultimate absurdity, meant to manipulate our heartstrings, but rather exploiting them. It is the end of the last inning with the score tied. Kit is the batter. It is of course the job of the catcher to help the pitcher get the batter out, and if the batter should get a hit, to cover home base if needed. At this point, Jimmy surely must replace Dottie as catcher; and unless Jimmy has taken his scheduled catcher off the roster, she is available. Instead, he allows Dottie to catch. Kit gets a long hit, and then there is the play at the plate – Dottie has the ball on time and tags Kit but then drops the ball so Kit is safe and her team wins and Dottie’s team loses. The sisters now are reconciled and hug in the lolcker room and say how much they love each other.

I should add that at several points in the movie, Dottie is shown catching balls with her bare hand, which astonishes her teammates; Dottie never drops a ball. In other words, to save her sister’s feelings, Dottie throws the game, betraying her teammates and their families and friends in the stands, and the manager and owner of her team, and anyone who has bet on the outcome. There is no greater crime in sports than throwing a game, no matter what the incentive. The final scene is many years later, when the girls are all invited to the baseball Hall of Fame. Dottie is greeted with hugs and smiles; not remotely credible.

The first half of this movie is quite good, some scenes even moving. But this ending totally spoiled this movie for me. I shouted at the TV set and was tempted to throw it out the window, but I own the set and the window, so all I did was fume for several hours and then write this review.

Fabulously presented as a story and interesting look into a bygone era.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 22, 2020

Verified Purchase

It took a while to get into this film. Probably as I wasn't in the mood for it. But on second watching, it really grew and bloomed.
Bassed on real people and events it is somewhat of a mixed bag of goodies.
Fabulously presented as a story and interesting look into a bygone era, my only big grip are the 80's hair styles rejigged to look sort of 40s.
I also wasn't holding out much hope of seeing Maddona do a good job in the film, but actually she came across very well.
80s style filming and acting and indeed, overall styles grate on me big time. But seeing through this and engaging with a real story of struggle, of challenge, of descrimination, of winning through really came out with a bright light. So too where the older representations of the young baseball players gathering together for a reunion.
The documentaries of the actual players, their story and what they had to go through is also a treasure to be hold.
All in all a really well presented production with some very authentic and heart rendering moments during an uncertain time in history, where the USA did what it could to retain a sense of normal.

A League of Their Own - 25th Anniversary Blu-ray

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on May 16, 2017

Verified Purchase

Truly, since I was a kid in 1992 this is still one my favourite feel good movies.

Mixing in a bit of little known history, about the Woman's Baseball League that ran from 1943-1954, and adding in an engaging storyline with fun, warm characters well played by the cast (even Madonna is good in this one!) it's completely entertaining from the start right up to the great finale.

A good extras package as well, as there's a commentary with cast and crew, 37 minutes of (often substantial) deleted scenes with intro by director Penny Marshall, a 52 minute nine part making of and a 12 minute reunion featurettes alongside the Madonna 'Playground' video. Great stuff!

Top film really doesn't need reviewing - The product does however - please be aware this is a Sony Pictures release - the UV code (boasting plays anywhere) doesn't work on the Flixster App on Apple IOS devices - this is becoming an increasing issue with Sony and Warner Bros titles - they will play on a computer browser via the Sony Store website and will download to Flixster but the download will have a 'playback unavailable' message on it...i've taken it up with the studio's who are clearly aware of this issue but just royally fob you off with a list of UV compatible partners none of which have apps available in the UK Apple store....this UV is also not available/compatible with the talk talk TV app. I do not know if this UV works on Flixster on android devices.....If you are buying this just for the UV copy and you have an ipad/iphone save your money and buy a copy from the Apple store....can't fault the Blu Ray itself but it's shocking that Studio's get away with marketing UV copies as play anywhere which they know clearly don't.

The drunk and the babes.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on August 17, 2011

Verified Purchase

It's 1943 and Baseball in the states has been decimated by all the men called up to join the services. Enter the ladies who themselves help to kick start a womens league to keep the Baseball fires burning.

The first thing any prospective first time viewer of this piece should note, is that it's not actually a film about Baseball. It's about friendships, challenges, and differing off shoots to the complications of war, it just so happens that it's the game of Baseball that brings it all together! Directed by Penny Marshall (Big), screenplay by Lowell Ganz & Babaloo Mandel (City Slickers/Parenthood) and featuring Tom Hanks {wonderful as drunken coach Dugan} as the leading male, it's no surprise that A League Of Their Own booms with sentiment and no little amount of comedy. It is to me a very rewarding picture, the sort that wants you to chuckle along with it whilst noting the need for human interaction during a troubled time. The lady actors do great impressions of bona fide athletes, asked to parade in short skirts and entertain the watching public, these gals, led by the always engaging Geena Davis, deliver a sparky picture that never veers into maudlin territory. There are of course some sombre moments, but they are placed nicely by Marshall in the context of the films events, never trite, they serve more as tender vignettes to run alongside the frivolity on offer. Ultimately A League Of Their Own achieves its aims come the final credits, its not taxing and its not purporting to be an intelligent look at a period in history. It's asking us the viewers to feel heartened by what we just watched, and just maybe to give those girls back in the 1940s a piece of our respect, job done. 7/10
