42:36 Review - Zábava
My grandmother was my best friend and she passed at 94 yrs old. This was her favorite movie (our movie) I believe in signs, and I've been really sad and thinking of her. Your channel popped up with our movie. The day I buried her, this movie came on. I'm trying to write this with tears rolling down my face. Great reaction and thank you. This was my sign. I needed this. ❤
I'm sure your grandmother is watching over you and I'm so happy that we were able to remind you of her. Keep her memory close to your heart. I'm sure she loved you more than you will ever know. - Toni 🤓❤️
@carriemichelle322 My grandmother (d. at 91) was my best friend, too! That wasn’t always the case, but I got to live with her during quarantine. Due to shared insomnia, we ended up bonding over TV and movies. I showed her a bunch of Marvel stuff and even took her to see Black Widow once theaters started re-opening. She LOVED the complicated family dynamics (and action!), so now that’s my go-to film when I’m missing her 🥹
Bonus memory: Grandma didn’t realize that Marvel’s post-credit scenes were actually included in the theatrical showing and LOUDLY asked why “none of these other people” in our row were leaving once the movie had “ended”
@@popculturallychallengedReaction request-Tokyo Vice season one (an HBO/Max Yakuza crime drama that's great), highly underrated but it's easily an 8.5/10 for me, and the second season finished streaming recently on Max; I'm waiting on a UK release date for season two. The series is based on the true story of American journalist Jake Adelstein. All the best from the UK 👍🏽🏴
@@cometgirl217 😊
you sound like the granddaughter every grandma would love to hold...and as a grandfather I can tell you this.. she is holding you still sweetie...
The players at the end are all actual players from the league, which continued for 11 years until 1954.
That is so cool! - Toni 🤓
No they are not. They are well established actresses with well over 100 combined roles dated back decades. Lynn Cartwrite, Eunice Anderson, Partricia Wilson, Barbara Erwin, Vera Johnson, Kathleen Butler, Betty Miller, Eugeni Melin, and Barbara Peliven.
@@jcarlovitch I think we are talking about two separate things. You're talking about the older players talking with the older Dottie. I'm talking about the scenes over the credits with the women actually playing baseball.
I saw this Woman's Baseball exhibit at the Baseball Hall of Fame in Copperstown, NY. During the closing credits actual members of the Girl's Baseball league are shown playing at Doubleday field in Cooperstown.
wow, that's so cool! - Toni 🤓
I adore this movie and still can't believe it was so criminally overlooked at the Oscars! It deserved the Best Picture, Best Director (Penny Marshall), Best Actress (Geena Davis), Best Supporting Actor (Tom Hanks), Best Original Song (Madonna) nominations!!!
And should have been nominated for best original score (Music Maestro Hans Zimmer)!!
Hey guys thanks for keeping the most famous line in from the movie:”There’s No Crying In Baseball!”💕
You're very welcome. It was a great line. - Toni 🤓
Great reaction! Loved this movie when it came out, everyone was so good in it. Regarding you questioning Madonna's song, "This Used to Be My Playground", the song was released as a single in 1992, and it hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
I just love dotty telling her grandsons "make sure to give him a chance" and "give him heck"
Yes, that was such a encouraging moment only a grandmother could do. - Toni 🤓
"This is our daughter Dottie... And this is our other daughter... Dottie's sister" 🤣🤣🤣
Your reaction to the baseball card being ripped was appropriate. 😂😂😂
"There's no crying in baseball!"
I love Lori Petty. It is a shame she did a number of bad movies (not this one) and fell off the map. Tank Girl (1995) was at her best, even if the rest of the movie was a disaster.
Fun Fact: The screenwriters wrote the part of Ernie Capadino especially for Jon Lovitz.
Action Star Fact Fact: Geena Davis really does catch a pop up behind her back. It was supposed to be done by a stunt double, but the double was having trouble. So Davis gave it a go.
Sweet Karma Fact: After they bring out the Peaches for their first game, and announce all of them, they run out on the field. In the background, you can see Rosie O'Donnell trip over a wire and fall down.
Authentic Battle Damage Fact: Many of the injuries and bruises in the film were real injuries that the actresses received during filming. The "strawberry" bruise Renée Coleman received on her thigh while sliding into a base remained for over a year.
Historical Fact: Tom Hanks' character, Jimmy Dugan, is loosely based on real-life baseball sluggers Jimmie Foxx and Hack Wilson. The film portrays the league as initially unpopular and unprofitable, until demeaning gimmicks are used to attract male audiences. In reality, the league was popular and profitable from the start, largely because it played in towns in the upper Midwest that had no way of watching a live baseball game. Eventually, the league grew into a ten-team two-division league. The advent of televised baseball games in the early fifties, however, would lead to the demise in the popularity of the league. The storyline was inspired by the career of baseball legend Dottie Collins. During World War II, Collins played for the All-American Girls Professional Baseball League, and pitched seventeen shutouts during her six-year career.
This is one of two movies my brother made sure I watched when I was researching the Brooklyn Dodgers and starting to learn about baseball. It always makes me both laugh and weep. (p.s. the other movie is "Major League").
I have a book about the Women's League; and my brother intended to take us both on a trip to CoopersTown as a birthday gift that October I was researching, to see the exhibit, but weather interfered and we wound up in Montauk instead for the day.
Lori Petty is good AF in Orange is the New Black.
Lori Petty does do good work even in the bad movies she shined.
The "Betty Spaghetti" reveal scene in the locker is a truly masterfully done reveal scene and it gets everyone teary eyed, the scene when we find out Shirley can't read is another great scene too.
The guy dancing wirh Madonna was Eddie Mekka. He played Carmine (aka the Big Ragoo) on Laverne and Shirley. He was an excellent Singer and Dancer. One of Baseball Stadium Announcers calling the game was David Lander who played Squiggy on Laverne and Shirley. The Baseball Scout was played by Jon Lovitz (from Saturday Night Live). Many of his insults and funny comments weren't in the script and were adlibs by Lovitz himself. Jimmy Duggan (Tom Hank's character) was based on the Real Manager of the Rockford Peaches former Star Player Jimmy Foxx. Kit (Lori Petty) has a Cult following as the title character in the movie Tank Girl. The horrible bruise on the Actesses leg was real. It took a year for it to heal.
Everyone recognizes Squiggy, but never knew that was Carmine (the soldier).
czcams.com/video/_2fe4-w5bUM/video.html
The director of this movie was 'Laverne' herself Penny Marshall, and 'Walter Harvey', the guy who hired Tom Hanks' character, is Garry Marshall, Penny's brother. The lady who played Betty 'Spaghetti' is Penny Marshall's daughter, Tracy Reiner, who was adopted by Rob Reiner when he married Penny.
Director Penny Marshall played Laverne on Laverne & Shirley. Her brother Gary Marshall, also a director, was Mr. Harvey.
In regards to whether Kit and Dottie talk or not when they’re older, in the beginning of the movie Dottie says she doesn’t think Kit will go to the dedication bc Kit travels a lot with her husband. So I think they just don’t get to see each other much, not bad blood or anything like that.
So glad you two saw this great movie. The song at the end, Madonna's "This used to be my playground " always makes me nostalgic about my childhood playing ball at the nearby park when I was very young.
It's a great song and was used very well. Happy found memories.... I love that movies can do that. - Toni 🤓
I can’t hear that song now without thinking of the last year of Veterans Stadium where I saw a lot of games and learned about baseball. They played it throughout the season with former players reminiscing about their time playing with the Phillies there.😢😢
Amazing movie. Perfectly cast and with a flawless score. Shit makes me cry every time.
A few bits of information for you guys.
-The AAGPBL was real and ran for almost 12 years.
-Mr. Harvey was modeled after old man Wrigley, the gum king. His name was Philip Knight Wrigley, and his father, William Wrigley, Jr. created the company.
Thus Wrigley Field is named after the family in Chicago.
-My third grade teacher went to a casting call for extras for the stadium seating scenes, and was in the film. However, I have yet to find her in the stands after 30 plus years of trying to spot her.
-This film is a classic! ❤
No ton of CGI, no explosions, just a great story, well told.
Forrest Gump had a ton of CGI. Is that a problem now?
@@kuhpunkt Thanks for the troll.
@@757optim I'm not trolling. There's a lot of CGI used in Forrest Gump.
I knew Toni would love this movie. It was good to see some happy tears. My favorite lines are "If it wasn't hard everyone would do it. The hard is what makes it great." and "You got yourself in the league. I got you on the train." I also love the respect Jimmy grew to have for Dottie, when, after her husband tells Jimmy he was a big fan, he replies back "Oh, hey, hey, well then, I'm a big fan of yours." Great movie.
Yes that’s such a hard scene when the mail man comes in with the letter from the war department.
Tear time for Toni!
That scene gets me every time too!!
I couldn't believe someone could be so cold and inconsiderate. - Toni 🤓
I think that scene also reminds us that there's a war going on. These women are dealing with their husbands or loved ones overseas, while still playing baseball to entertain the people back home. It also gets me each time...
When Toni turned to David and stroked his cheek was such a sweet moment.
This movie is part of the trifecta for me. It is completed with Fried Green Tomatoes and Steel Magnolias, both of which I highly recommend. I’m glad you liked this one.
The woman playing at the end credits were actual players from the All American Girls Professional Baseball League (A.A.G.P.B.L.)
Penny Marshall directed this film. When they sent out the casting call, she said if they couldn't already play baseball, don't show up because they didn't have time to teach them to play. Tom Hanks said this is one of his favorite movies....he spent the summer playing baseball. Yes, there was a woman's baseball league.
That is so cool!! Thank you for sharing that insight. I wish I could play baseball.... I would be winding swinging the bat! -Toni 😂
Definitely based on a true story about the AAGPBL which lasted 11 years I believe. I had the honor of meeting 2 of the real players in the league. The league existed in a very small region of the country in factory towns that were geared up for the war. Racine Wisconsin. Rockford Illinois. Fort Wayne Indiana, South Bend Indiana. Battle Creek Michigan, Grand Rapids Michigan, and Chicago Illinois. If you look on a map the cities look really close together. But, with no interstate highways yet and riding a bus. It must have felt forever between towns.
Fun facts: Betty "Spaghetti" Horn was played by Tracy Reiner, daughter of director Penny Marshall and Rob Reiner. If you saw Apollo 13, she played Fred Haise's wife. The Man dancing with Madonna is Eddie Mekka, a dancer and best known for playing Shirley's boyfriend Carmine "The Big Ragu" Ragusa on LaVerne and Shirley. There were 65 former members of the AAGPBL at the HOF ceremony and game. Megan Cavanaugh (Marla Hooch) did all her own hitting. The other actresses also played but there were a couple of stand ins for crucial hitting scenes, except hers.
@@Dave-hb7lx They both consider themselves father and daughter so I didn't think it appropriate to bring up the adoption part.
The “shingles on the roof” probably are “little pieces of wood.” That looked like a cedar shake roof.
23:05 "..there are."
Toni is an ABSOLUTE sweetheart
“I wonder how many of these ladies played baseball with their grandkids”
Actually one of the real life members of the league, Hellen Callaghan, played baseball with her son. His name’s Casey Candaele and he played for the Expos, Astros, and Indians in the 80s and 90s.and is currently a coach on the Blue Jays.
That is so cool!! Thank you for the insight!! - Toni 🤓
This movie is a love letter to our nostalgia. Any middle school kids watching this movie should take this movie as inspiration to join their school's after school team because we only get only so much time to be young and innocent in school to form these memories and character.
This movie is based on historical events, this isn't a "pep" talk to inspire kids to become active in sports - it's meant to teach/remind people of what living during wartime was like, what was sacrificed...., lest we do it again. Men - Husbands/Fathers went off to war, leaving their families alone. Women had to take their place here at home to keep the economy running - the economy that provided everything needed to keep their men safe and win the war.
Toni I loved your expression when the “chaperone got kissed by Tom!!
And David I loved that you caught the Wizard Of Oz reference after Tom kissed her!!
I grew up where this film was made (Racine field) and currently live in the same county as where the Rockford Peaches field was filmed in Indiana. The pride surrounding this film still exists as the field has been kept just as pristine as it was 30 years ago. Tom Hanks still talks about Southern Indiana being one of his all-time favorite places to film in.
At the beginning, they are playing fast-pitch softball. Jon Lovitz played the talent scout. He was so good in this, I wish he had a bigger part. The batter for Racine that you said you thought you saw somewhere before was actress Tea Leoni. She's been in many things, my favorite being "Deep Impact". This movie has a special place in my heart for me & one of my granddaughter's. She still text each other whenever one of us is watching it. I knew you'd love it. I enjoyed watching you watch it.
Hello, " Their is no crying in baseball. " - Jimmy Duggan
" Basebol has been bery,bery good to me. " - Chico Esquela
THe girl with the large leg bruise was actress Renee Coleman and she had that contusion for over a year after filming. Talking about taking one for the team?!?!?!??!
lol I hadn’t seen your comment and said the same thing! This was filmed partially in my hometown so I have a special place for it ❤ I loved that they chose actresses that could actually play
BTW the correct answer when you wife says, "You haven't taken me to a steak dinner" is not, "I'm sure I have" it's, "just tell me when you want to go." ;)
Hey guys great reaction! I always enjoy you guys. Toni....I knew it would get you. This is one of my favorite baseball movies. I've actually been to Cooperstown and seen the exhibit. Its breathtaking and its AWESOME to know that it's part of pro baseball history. I love seeing the actual players playing at the end while madonna's song is playing
Cooperstown is a small town. It is beautiful. It is well worth the trip. Just don't go in the summer. Go in November. Or early March. You won't be disappointed.
I love that y'all played the ending footage with the real players. First time I've seen a Reactor do that so thank you 🫶. This will always be one of my favorite films. RIP Penny Marshall
Thank you for watching with us. We really enjoyed the complete movie and the ending was so awesome and toughing. - Toni 🤓
Such a fun movie. Just a fun fact there were 68 Canadian Women mainly from Saskatchewan, Manitoba and Alberta " on this All American Women's Baseball League"
Well, *North* American is American.
Lynn Cartight played older Dottie and you are correct. She was dubbed by Gena Davis.
I thought they had made her look older or something. - Toni🤓
I always felt sorry for poor Marla; with everyone going on about her looks... until she met the right guy, then she looked stunning (even though she couldn't sing!)!
and my favorite line, along with many others, "THERE's NO CRYING IN BASEBALL!"
My grandmother took me and my other 2 brothers to see this at the theater when we were kids. Glorious memory. Fantastic movie that I'm sure my grannis connected with so much.
A Film based on the Actual Professional Women's Baseball League... And Yes They Have A Section of the "National Baseball Hall of Fame" in Cooperstown, NY Dedicated to Them...
That is so cool. I'm adding Cooperstown to my Bucket List. Maybe some day we will get to visit! - Toni 🤓
I remember i saw a commercial for this movie telling us it was next. I told my dad, who is a very macho man i mean i only saw home once at my grandmother's funeral, "That's a good movie. Not sure if you watched it. " He replied, " There's no crying in baseball. " i just laughed. 😅😅😅😅
Midway Village Museum in Rockford, IL has a great Peaches exhibit. Thanks for sharing. Peace, all 💕
I'm going to have to add that to our Bucket List!! I would love to check it out. Thank you for sharing!! -Toni 🤓
The scout.... should have won an Oscar!
If they would have had a chance with or without Dottie doesn't matter you don't lose the game for your teammates just so your sister feels better.
You don't need to love or even know baseball to love this movie. This Aussie loved it
The bruise on the players thigh was real. League was real too.
Re: Peeing, I heard Penny Marshal (the director) was controlling the flow off-stream and didn't tell Hanks how long it would go on. Makes for a funny improvisation.
Did you notice carmine was one of the dancers with madonna - penny Marshall directed it - her brother gary was Mr chocolate man himself harvey and her daughter or Gary's daughter (niece) was Betty spaghetti.
A well made Great Movie that Toni will LOVE.
Amen to that!👍
Thanks for covering one of my favorite movies. All of the points I would normally point out were already mentioned in the earlier comments. Penny Marshall did a great job casting this movie by having cast members who already had experience playing baseball. Penny also stuck to the history of the league as much as possible. I love that they brought in the real women who played for the league for the reunion scene.
I love Jon Lovitz in this. He steals the show. I heard Penny Marshall the director talking about him in the film. She said he was concentrating so much a cow fell over next to him in the barn and gave birth and he didn't even notice! She said they put grapes in the cuffs of his trousers so the chickens would flock to him... The actress playing Betty Spaghetti is Penny Marshalls daughter.
There was a series of deleted scenes, but unfortunately CZcams took them down. The best one was right after Marla left the train station, when they were on the train eating. The infamous "peeing" scene in the locker room was basically improvised. Penny Marshall was off-camera pouring water in a bucket from a hose and Tom just reacted to everything she did. This film was an absolute classic. And now, at 60, I still my cry eyes out every single time at the end. Every. Single. Time.
My grandmother got one of those telegrams about my Uncle Joe his whole platoon was killed but lucky for him he was bitten by a dog and in a Military hospital getting checked for rabies so he ended up having to stay behind because of a dog bite. He had survivor's guilt for the rest of his life. He passed last year rip Uncle Joe
22:38 No makeup by the way, that's a real bruise. And its stuck with her until the day she dies.
My parents showed me this movie when I started playing softball and it has been a favorite of mine ever since.
Tea Leoni is the one you said looked familiar batting on the Bells team.
I bet you didn't think this movie was going to make you cry 😢 Toni
Director Penny Marshall insisted all the actresses really knew how to play baseball so there'd be no "faking it."
She had Rosie O'Donnell teach Madonna how to play and they've been close friends ever since.
Such a classic movie! ❤ My favorite baseball movie ever!
RIP Penny Marshall. She directed such a great film here.
I gotta say…I called this one. Lol So glad u both enjoyed it, but I already knew Toni would love it.
Movie Fact: The leg injury at 22:35 is real, no makeup. They played baseball for real in the movie. The actress, Renée Coleman, bruised her leg while sliding into a base.
"Avoid the Clap" - Jimmy Dugan 😆. That line always gets me. Such a great movie. For all of Tom Hanks' great performances and accolades, this is my favorite performance of his. Great reaction! Cheers from Hart, Michigan.
Thank you for watching with us and that was a great part. Well hello Hart, Michigan!! -Toni 🤓
That massive bruise the woman had on her leg was actually real.
The dancing guy with Madonna, got famous, with the director gary Marshall and penny Marshall, who were started and big in tv, Happy Days, Laverne and Shirley. He played a wannabe actor dancer singer boyfriend, for Shirley!
Wow.... Thank you for the insight!! - Toni 🤓
If you guys get the chance; watch the deleted scenes from this movie; Marla was supposed to have gotten hit and thrown over while playing (and since time had gone by she was pregnant) the blood was from that deleted scene and originally dottie was waiting for the phone to ring in the hall and then she went back to the room crying. marla i think fell really weird and dottie tagged her hard and kit yells at her on the field on the other team and they are all whispering how marla is pregnant cause the league wouldn't let anyone play who was etc. and dottie originally was crying and worried about her.
Wow, Will need to find that version. - Toni 🤓
The whole cast was incredible in this movie. Especially Madonna and acting isnt usually her strong point.
The bruise on the actresses thigh was real. Penny Marshall the director decided to put it in the film. The actress has said it took about 12 months to totally fade. The Betty Spaghetti actress is Penny Marshall’s daughter, and Mr Harvey is her brother. The actors all had to do boot camp to learn to slide etc. they practised sliding on a slip and slide. One broke a wrist doing that even before filming started. Another actress got hit in the nose by a pitch and broke her nose. I spotted a blooper in this. When she says she is going to quit the team Tom Hanks has that ‘if it wasn’t hard everyone would do it’ speech, then later after the final game Dottie introduces Jimmy to her husband like they have never met?
Thank you for saying what the dollar amount is today.Great reaction.I got a lump in my throat when the son was meeting up with the women at the end
David loves displaying the dollar amount now. Even before the channel he would always go look to see what that would be in today's monies.... That was a very touching moment. I was with you, I had a lump in my throat too. - Toni 🤓
I think at the end where the old ladies are playing baseball THOSE ARE THE ACTUAL LADIES LEFT FROM THE REAL WOMEN'S BASEBALL
Yes loved your reaction when he tore up the baseball card!!
Especially with what happens to her later in the movie…
Re Squiggy: Mr. Harvey is played by Gary Marshal, Penny Marshal's (Laverne's) brother.
Thank you, for reviewing this movie. Must have watched this over 100 times and, I still love it each time . Without a doubt, this is my favorite "female sports" movie. The actress Ms. Geena Davis also stars in my favorite pirate movie of all time the 1995, "Cutthroat Island". So, I hope you also watch this film soon (smile...smile).
The women from the baseball teams were in the crowds at the end.
The shingles are called shake shingles and they are literally little pieces of wood. I never put any down, but my brother did when he roofed houses 1000 years ago. ( Maybe not 1000 but probably 40 years ago)
I went to Cooperstown in the late 90s and I saw the women’s exhibit… It was one wall. It’s understandable since the actual Hall of Fame is a pretty small building. But where they showed it in the movie is not where it was. That room they were in is the portrait room where they have famous baseball paintings by people like Norman Rockwell and several others. Double day field, where they played in the beginning, and end of the movie is the field that’s right next-door to the Hall of Fame. This is definitely one of my favorite movies. I’m glad you guys enjoyed it too! And the one woman that you thought looked familiar near the end of the movie was Tia Leone. She’s more recognizable as a blonde since that’s what she was in every other movie and TV show that she’s been in. I’m so glad I got to see your reaction to this. Thanks for the morning cry! 🥲🤧⚾️ #There’sNoCryingInBaseball 💙💙💙
When Mrs. PPC gets to tears, it always gets me, lol. Good reaction you two!
Sorry, I hope you didn't get puffy eyes... - Toni 🤓
There was a reunion of a few of the original players and some of the actresses some years back. The one with the large bruise on the thigh was there and was asked if that was real or makeup. She said it was very much real and still has scars on her leg from it.
You're gonna love it!!
It was great!! - Toni 🤓
The Island 2005 by Michael Bay
“There’s no crying in baseball!!!”
The story itself if totally functional, but based on real events. The characters are meant to be representative. "Dottie Hinson" is VERY, VERY loosely based on Dorothy Kamenshek.
Dottie and Kit were in no way estranged, but I guess didn't see each other much. Older Dottie mentions that she doubts Kit will come because she's always running around and traveling with her husband, and I suppose they didn't live near each other. She was surprised and thrilled to see her.
The actress who plays Marla was hilarious in Robin Hood: Men in Tights!
The roofing material on the house is wood shake. FYI 😀
Thanks!
Can't believe you cut out the scene of the girl that couldn't read her name. Thought that was a nice scene with some emotion that you would appreciate.
My favorite emotional point of the movie.
Did y'all not recognize Rosie O'Donnell? She played Doris, the friend of Madonna's in the movie.
This is one of the great baseball movies, right up there with The Natural, Field of Dreams and Bull Durham. 😊
LAVONNE " PEPPER "PARE TOLD US ABOUT THE LEAGUE IN THE 70S. GINA DAVIS' CHARACTER IS PEPPER. WE WERE LIKE LITTLE KIDS LISTENING TO THE STORIES.
Geena Davis at the beginning in the older makeup.....that was my error. A different actress. But that was a common mistake from this film too.
The actress you saw neae the end Playing for Racine is Téa Leoni, she appeared earloer.during charm class.
I LOVE HOW YOU FEEL THINGS. DON'T WORRY HE IS RIGHT NEXT TO YOU AND NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
There’s just something about a movie that ends with a photograph.
That's interesting..... I hadn't thought about that but you are right! It has a different feeling..... - Toni 🤓
Every time one of your videos pop up in my feed, I immediately get flooded with memories of the EXACT scenes where I know Toni is gonna lose it.. and I think oh no!
One of my favorites! Thank y'all!
You have great taste! It was fantastic! - Toni 🤓
You have great taste! It was fantastic! - Toni 🤓
Young Stillwell reminds us all why lions eat their young.
LOL!
They used makeup to make Geena Davis look older. But that is her at the beginning.
You seemed to enjoy that one. Good to see Tom Hanks in another Penny Marshall movie. I like your Field of Dreams reaction. Other baseball faves for me are Moneyball and Trouble With The Curve.
Never heard of those two movies so looking forward to watching them. I've added them to our list. Thank you - Toni 🤓
