When I was living in Japan, he came to Japan for the premier of bodyguard. I remember how the Japanese media got mesmerized with his manners and humbleness. This short film deserves a stranding ovation.

    I love this guy more than you might know. I saw him when he was young in "Dances with Wolves," happen to see his behind, "beautiful," and then other movies he made as I was an extra still. Once he looked into my eyes like he remembered me, I just melted again and again. I shall always remember him, his tenderness, his intellect, his just being Kevin, watching him from afar with love and memories. In fact no matter how old he gets, I still get the chills to see him, hear his voice and melt again. Navajo Grandma

      The Field measurements of original field were too short and center field too close. Not enough seating or parking etc. 8000 people in stands of New Field. It's not down the road. Ssme driveway. More parking lots but. It is attached to original ballfield and the house propert. Which was owned by 2 neighboring farm families. The field was split down the middle. Now bought out and also surrounding v on fields bought out by corporate who own The musher larger " Field " consisting of small field, parking lots, corn maze between 2 fields', large field, house, concession stand ( originally owned & operated by the 2 families). Very complicated.

The entire population of Dyersville, Iowa is only 4000. That community is to be applauded for their hard word in it all happening so smoothly. A big attraction for Dyersville and a plus for Iowa ( I mean HEAVEN) HA! Kevin Costner carved his name into the small wooden bleachers while filming the movie. It's still there.

      It's such a fundamental part of growing up in America, you learn when you can barely walk how to throw a baseball. I read that when the movie came out in 1989 here in the states, the movie theaters did not turn the lights up once the credits rolled because grown men were sitting in their seats crying. They left the lights off longer so the men could collect themselves before leaving the theater. I have only heard that was the rule with this specific movie.
