BULL DURHAM (1988) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

[@cinavs21]

If you love a young Kevin Costner, I highly recommend the movie No Way Out. Such a great thriller!! He was also in another fun sports movie called Tin Cup.

This makes me the 5th ... "For Love of the Game" is the best baseball movie ever. The core of the movie revolves around him pitching in this last game with his mind and communication and thinking on display ... it's perfect. Everything else is the filler that ties it all together.

[@wubranch1]

This movie is one of my favorites. The tale of the player who has everything but enough talent. Side story, Kevin was told about when Mickey Mantle(one of the greatest ball players history) saw the film, and didn’t find it all funny because he remembered too many guys like Crash who were passed over, but were really good. That’s why I love this film, it tells the story of the unknown players who came as close as one could come to their dream without being able to live it. The story of the moonlight Grahams essentially, but I don’t think you would find many who would say they regret trying. This movie is a love story, a love for the game.

[@willinnewhaven3285]

Anyone who mention Moonlight Graham has my upvote.

[@76JStucki]

Being sort of a Moonlight Graham myself… I’m still figuring out whether or not I regret it. It’s a little back and forth, up and down, to be honest. It isn’t this adamant kind of resolve : “If I had to do it over again, I wouldn’t change a thing.” It isn’t like that. It’s more like “it’s a good thing I can’t do it over again, because I probably would change some things, and then I would miss out on the life I have now.” Something like that.

[@leeturiano4419]

Another cool thing: Tim Robbins who played Ebby, and Susan Sarandon who played Annie, met, fell in love and dated for 23 years after meeting filming this movie, and she's 12 years older than him.

I would also recommend an early Costner film, "Fandango." Not a well paced movie, but very charming.

[@marleybob3157]

The "Clown" was Max Patkin who was the real life Clown Prince of Baseball. He performed mostly in minor league parks. Stationed in Hawaii in 1944, Patkin was pitching for a service team, and Joe DiMaggio homered off the lanky right-hander. In mock anger, Patkin threw his glove down then followed DiMaggio around the bases, much to the delight of the fans-and a career was born. He is a national treasure!

[@clevelandcbi]

Sounds like my Indians.

[@ariochiv]

I saw Patkin a few times at our local A-ball club. It turned the Minor League experience up to 11. :D

[@jaredwatson76]

Met Mr. Parkin while working for the Trenton Thunder (AA for the Red Sox at the time). He was touring plugging a book about his life and I had a chance to talk baseball with him one on one for about 20 minutes. He unfortunately passed not too long after that. Seemed like a great guy with an infectiously positive demeanor.

Two words: Silver ado. Another one of those gems from the Eighties that's still great 40 years later.

[@ernestitoe]

It was written by Ron Shelton, a career minor-leaguer himself. It was all based on his experiences. He played in the Triple-A club in my hometown. I can still hear the announcer: "At second base, Number 14, Ron Shelton!" Shelton has written a lot of movies like this. (See White Men Can't Jump.) His scripts are about sports and romance, but they're really about men -- the balance between toughness and tenderness, between bravado and the capacity to be hurt. The story doesn't jump up and tell you this. You just have to watch closely and you'll get it.

[@DystOptimist]

Also written for Kurt Russel who played ball for his father, Bing Russel's team.

[@markfilla9305]

For anyone who is a fan of podcasts - Ron Shelton was interviewed in 2022 for the podcast It Happened in Hollywood. It was a really interesting interview with lots of great behind the scenes stories of the making of the movie.

[@susanb4213]

In real life, Susan Sarandon (Annie) and Tim Robbins (Nuke) fell in love on the set and were a couple for 21 years. They had two sons together. Given your confusion about why she would be with him over Crash, I thought that was kind of interesting trivia.

[@jbigger59]

Educational note: In professional baseball, there are Major League Teams, the big cities with the big stadiums and the big bucks and millions of fans. These are "THE BIG LEAGUES" or "THE SHOW". But each Major League team has a series of "farm clubs", teams in smaller towns with smaller stadiums, smaller attendance, and smaller salaries, of course. These leagues are grouped as either single, double, or triple A clubs, single A being the smallest and poorest. These leagues are called Minor Leagues. The players i the minors are either young, promising talent playing a few seasons to learn the skills necessary to compete in the Big Leagues, or else they are older players who either never made it into the Bigs, or did make it, however briefly, and are just playing out the rest of their career hoping to be called back up. "Nuke" was a young promising talent with speed on his pitches but a problem with control. He was in the Minors to see if he could learn the control he needed. "Crash" was just pissed to be back down in single A ball, he WAS playing double or triple A, hoping to get called up himself, but he got demoted to help school a promising, but dim, pretty boy.

[@Jessica_Roth]

The real-life Durham Bulls were indeed in the single-A Carolina League at the time. However, the publicity from the film helped build the fanbase, and with a new ballpark being built in 1995, they became a AAA club in 1998, when the majors added two new clubs, meaning new minor league clubs at every level were needed as well. The Bulls serve as the AAA team for the Tampa Bay Rays, so those who go on to play for the Rays are often Bulls before that. The film "The Rookie" is recommended by other commenters. It's about Jim Morris, who gave baseball another try after having been retired and ended up making the big leagues. (Dennis Quaid plays Morris.) Morris played for Durham during his comeback, before making it to Tampa Bay and thus the big leagues.

[@RichardDicksondlyrch68]

And that's why the Bulls weren't outwardly sad about Nuke leaving for the show, because that happens all the time. That's the whole reason players like him are in the minors in the first place.

[@Jessica_Roth]

In 1987, the Bulls were affiliated with the Atlanta Braves and managed by current Braves manager Brian Snitker. About a half-dozen of the real-life Bulls eventually made the Show, but none jumped directly from A-ball, which is rather rare. More often, you move "up the chain"…Durham to Greenville (SC) to Richmond and then to Atlanta. You might skip a level, but rarely two, as Nuke does. That said, it works for the film. Ron Shelton (writer-director) made it as high as AAA with the Rochester (NY) Red Wings, the longtime affiliate of the Baltimore Orioles, back when the Orioles were a dominant team. He played 2nd base, his partner at shortstop was Bobby Grich, who went on to be an multiple All-Star and probably should have won the MVP (Most Valuable Player) in 1979. (Some even think Grich should be in the Hall of Fame.) Of course, the Orioles already had players at those positions. When they traded their 2nd baseman (Davey Johnson), they called up Grich rather than Shelton, and by the time Grich left as a free agent, Ron was past his prime. But so it goes.

[@marleybob3157]

In the movie, the Bulls were a single A. Given that, the concept of a pitcher getting moved from single A to the majors, even at the end of the season for a team not going to the playoffs, is extremely remote. They wouldn't want to destroys the confidence off a young pitcher by serving him up to major league hitters. It is much more likely he'd be promoted to double AA or triple AAA if they were insanely impressed. But the majors, nah, ain't gonna happen. That is the one problem I have with the plot of this film.

[@blueeyedcowboy8291]

As much as I love Field of Dreams, Bull Durham and For Love of the Game, my personal favorite sports movie with Kevin Costner is Tin Cup...another great Rom-Com you would absolutely love.

I was born and raised in Durham, NC and you have no idea how much it warms my heart to see you react to this movie. So many beautiful shots of North Carolina. We love our Durham Bulls around here btw!!!

[@donraper1012]

Round out the young Costner movies with Silverado.

[@susanalexander6721]

Finally! Knew you would love this. Young Kevin at his most handsome.

[@george8873]

Lol @ Cassie's reaction to the line about soft kissing that lasts for three days. Should check out For the Love of the Game, the other Kevin Costner baseball movie. And Tin Cup, a golf movie with him is also good.

[@yourthaiguy]

Sarandon and Robbins actually feel in love on the set of this film and ended up living together for almost 15 years...

[@dave29123]

A League of Their Own (1992) next.

[@chefskiss6179]

OMG OMG OMG... aahh... closure! So what's the uh countdown to Tin Cup? 😂😂😂

[@rogerlucero834]

Yes, Cassie, Tin Cup is Costner as a golfer and his love is Renee Russo. Which reminds me, watch The Thomas Crown Affair

[@paintedjaguar]

"Tin Cup" will be sooner rather than later I imagine (not a bad thing). Maybe even "Waterworld" or "The Postman", this looks like a serious movie crush.

[@chefskiss6179]

@@rogerlucero834 Yup, a Rene Russo film fest is always welcomed... Tin Cup, In The Line of Fire, Thomas Crown Affair... I'm sure will put a smile on her face the whole way through, bonus points if she invites her sis as well.

You didn't recognize Andy Dufrense....from your VERY FIRST REACTION???!!!!! 😀😀😀

[@SubterrelProspector]

This is what's great about older movies. We always assume classics are always gonna be these epic larger than life things and yet some of the best ones are just these little slice-of-life stories that are really in touch with humanity and you just feel so much more hopeful afterward. We need stories like this.

[@silverlobo2135]

Hello Cassie Tim Robbins (Ebbie / Nuke) and Annie (Susan Sarandon) met on this movie and were a couple from 1988 to 2009. You might be remembering Susan from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show". Maybe you saw her in one of her most recent works as Betty Davis in "Feud" 2017 or "A Bad Mom's Christmas" 2017. Other of her memorable films are "Thelma and Louise", "Stepmom", "Enchanted", "Dead Man Walking", "The Lovely Bones", "Cloud Atlas", and "The Witches of Eastwick". The movie is about MINOR league baseball. This is where some players go to play and train until they are "called up" to play in the MAJOR leagues (The Big Show). Each minor league team is owned by a Major League Baseball team. Hence, these players are still 'earning' a salary. Players will be 'let out of their contracts' if they (ML owners) do not see any significant improvement or hire someone else to take the player's place that could be a 'better' find.

[@gerstelb]

I can’t pull up your list of reactions at the moment, but Susan Sarandon’s got 159 acting credits, in everything from “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” to “Enchanted,” with stops at “The Witches of Eastwick” and “Thelma and Louise.” If you really want to see her steam up the screen, though, see “White Palace.” After making this movie, Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon were a couple in real life for about 21 years.

[@htim8997]

Also noteworthy: "Atlantic City," costarring opposite Burt Lancaster, who you saw in "Field of Dreams."

[@bodine57]

@@htim8997 An underrated classic!!

[@ct6852]

Never heard of White Palace. What's it about?

[@gerstelb]

@@ct6852 Just realized that I never responded to your question about “White Palace.” James Spader is a young up-and-coming ad exec who’s recently lost his wife, and Susan Sarandon is a waitress at a burger joint (thinly veiled White Castle). He’s late twenties, she’s 43 I think. They meet by chance, and what follows is a *very* torrid affair. Heavy drama, lots of steam, with occasional humor: Max: All I know is that when I'm not with you I'm a total wreck. Nora: And when you are with me? Max: I'm a different kind of total wreck.

[@ct6852]

@@gerstelb Sounds interesting. Just watched the trailer. Looks like some Less Than Zero-era Spader.

[@mattdellarosa7365]

Great movie Cassie. You should watch For Love of the Game with Kevin Kostner. It's another great baseball movie.

[@lastmouseontheleft]

Feels like we’ve been building up to this one ❤

[@saytr4]

Susan Sarandon was born in 1946. Bull Durham was released in 1988. Making her: 10:06

[@johnhammonds5143]

Bull Durham isn't about baseball. It's about Life. One of my favorite movies.

[@barrygross77]

Baseball is life……..

[@valenciajason1]

Have you reacted to a League Of Their Own yet?

[@datisalaee4693]

Early Kevin Costner movies I'd Highly recommend: 1) AMERICAN FLYERS (1985) & 2) SILVERADO (1985) One of The Best Western movies Ever. Silverado brought the Western genre back to the mainstream.

[@arties.1964]

This is the most realistic baseball movie ever made. Interesting fact: Tim Robbins & Susan started dating during the making of this film. They're still married today. Also, if you want another Costner film, try No Way Out.

[@bossfan49]

They never married and they split up in 2009.

[@TheWadetube]

Kevin Costner was in Silverado, a really great western with an all star cast and he was kind of wild as a fast gun and even younger.. Perhaps you will watch him in Yellowstone his current series.

[@jasonbeatty831]

The scene on the mound where all the players are dealing with their own problems is one of the funniest scenes in any movie.

[@Bekka_Noyb]

Costner also played an ex-baseball player in the movie The Upside of Anger. Has a killer cast including Joan Allen, Kerri Russell & Evan Rachel Wood

[@ThistleAndSea]

YAY! Can't wait!! 😃 You & your sister should watch For The Love Of The Game together. you will love it!

[@kenray8048]

You have to watch Silverado. That was Kevin Costner's breakout movie. It's also a fun watch.

[@cteal2018]

This s the minors...the bottom rung, first step, the lowest you get in pro-ball. This is the first time these guys are getting paid, and both Crash and Annie are there to teach the youngsters what is waiting for them. Annie is a groupie at the heart of it all

[@htim8997]

It's the bottom, but there are levels of bottom. In 1988 when this came out most major league organizations had six minor league teams. The Carolina League was considered "High A" or "Advanced A", so it probably would have been the fourth stop up for a player who played at every level. Very rarely, however, a particularly hot young player (such as Nuke) might start as high as Advanced A or even higher, especially if he was drafted out of college instead of high school.

[@charger70s]

In Durham, the Bulls minor league baseball team has one asset no other can claim, a poetry-loving groupie named Annie (Sarandon). As the team's season begins, she selects brash new recruit Laloosh (Robbins), whom she christens "Nuke," to inspire with the religion of baseball. He also receives guidance from veteran player Davis (Costner) who settles his erratic pitching and teaches him to follow the catcher's lead.

[@wyluli-dt9wv]

The movie "Silverado" has a young Kevin Costner and is a pretty fantastic western as well. Give it a shot when its time for you to dip your toe back into that genre. Also, thanks for another great reaction. You're the best reactor on youtube and its not even close!

[@conureron3792]

Hi Popcorn, Chico Esquela once said " Basebol has been bery, bery good to me ". Now you are down to one more Basebol movie: " Brewster's Millions ".

[@SteveSwags]

This is a spectacular relationship movie (and I'm not talking about the typical boys meets girl type). The interactions everyone has are so well written that you don't need to be a baseball fan to appreciate the movie, although it helps! Glad you enjoyed it.

[@ct6852]

Super quirky for a sports movie.

[@rickmclaughlin9710]

If you haven't seen Silverado (1985,) you must. It has an all-star cast, including a very young Kevin Costner.

[@michaelallen434]

Kevin Costner is obsessed with baseball. That's why he's done so many baseball movies. This one is my favorite baseball movie and I watch it every spring right before the season starts.

[@robhammons2915]

Cassie, PLEASE react to Open Range also starting Kevin Costner… I don’t know if you see these comments but if you do I LOVE your content and reactions.

[@greenbeech3055]

Bull Durham is one of the few sports movies which doesn't condescend to the audience. It tells the truth about sports, which is that it's all about genetics, about God-given ability. You either have it or you don't, and most people don't.

[@terminallumbago6465]

Another great baseball movie it’d be cool to see your reaction to is A League of Their Own.
