Without looking it up on the web, who played the Babe in the movie about his life?

Am a big film buff & didn't have to look it up.

The Bendix film is one of the worst sports biopics EVER.

Yeah, it was pretty bad wasn't it? I can still see Bendix very antimatedly pointing out to centerfield against the Cubs and the Babe's "called shot." Too funny.
Never saw the movie with John Goodman.

I have noted your regular cogent participation on the Politics board- Welcome-
Any how,  William Bendix=great as 'Riley' but the pits of the world as 'the Babe'
It is one of the few films I could not sit through- Made 'Ishtar' look like 'Gone With the Wind'

Bull Durham came out amid a flurry of baseball pix (over a few years, anyway): Eight Men Out, Field of Dreams, Major League, A League of Their Own, and Cobb - to name a few. "Fear Strikes Out" was one of my favorites when I was growing up, and I enjoyed some of the bad old films that dealt with Grover Cleveland, Monty Stratton, and Dizzy Dean. Bang the Drum Slowly was baseball's "Brian's Song" - DeNiro and Moriarty were fun, but Paul Newman played "Awthur" in soliloquy back in the 50s, and I thought it was pretty good. and the Ken Burns history was great.
