- For love of the game (1999)- Kevin Costner stars as aging ace Billy Chapel in this movie that takes you beyond the field. It truly dives into the lives of these heroes of ours and shows them as very human in every right. In this film it shows you the love/hate relationship Chapel has with himself while going back and fourth of him pitching what could possibly be his last game. He didn’t always love himself or the people he should have, but he always loved the game of baseball.
Perfect list! My order would have been different, but all the stalwarts were represented. Great read!!
