TMR 041 – The Sandlot

from Total Movie Recall

This week on Total Movie Recall, we take a big shit on Boomers and their cheap nostalgia for a "better time." A time when a bunch of baseball-loving kids' black friend would have had to walk home to his segregated neighborhood. A time of nuclear anxiety because our megalomaniacal leaders were determined to blow up the world. A time when women were openly sexually harassed with no consequences. But hey, wasn't baseball fun? Don't think about all that other stuff. The Sandlot (1993) d. David Mickey Evans Starring Tom Guiry - Scotty Smalls Denis Leary - Bill (stepdad) Karen Allen - mom Mike Vitar - Ben Patrick Renna - Ham Chauncey Leopardi - Squints Marty York - Yeah-Yeah Brandon Quintin Adams - Kenny DeNunez Grant Gelt - Bertram Grover Weeks Shane Obedzinski - Repeat Victor DiMattia - Timmy Timmons James Earl Jones - Mr. Mertle Art LaFleur - Babe Ruth (The Babe) When Scottie Smalls moves to a new neighborhood, he manages to make friends with a group of kids who play baseball at the sandlot.
