Bull Durham

About This Movie

Bull Durham, directed by Ron Shelton, is one of those films that balances comedy and romance with a deep love for baseball. The chemistry between Kevin Costner and Tim Robbins feels authentic, showcasing the struggles and absurdities of minor league life. Susan Sarandon, as Annie, adds an interesting layer—she’s not just a groupie but a character with her own desires and quirks. The dialogue has a rhythm that feels natural, almost like a well-played game. It's not just about the sport; it’s about the relationships and the absurdity of life in the minors. There’s a certain charm to the practical effects and the way it captures the atmosphere of summer ball. Plus, the score definitely sets the right mood.
