VHS Movie Reviews of Long Gone [VHS]
Movie Review: Love it, love it - and want it on DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
I saw this movie when it originally came out and fell in love!!!! The grittiness of the characters and the subsequent life stories were riveting. Just an all-around entertaining baseball movie.
I WANT IT ON DVD. I went to HBO's website and submitted an e-mail imploring them to issue this on DVD--I would ask that you do the same, and maybe something will happen.
Summary of Long Gone [VHS]
Kevin Costner might have had a hammerlock on baseball movies in the late 1980s with Bull Durham and Field of Dreams, but this 1987 HBO film with a few mid-level stars was (and still is) very good in its own way. William L.?Petersen (Manhunter) is a player-manager for a 1950s minor-league team whose fortunes and hopes turn around during their battle for a championship. As with Bull Durham, this comedy has the feeling of taking place in a world larger than that of baseball, and thus provides useful perspective into why the game is so central in people's lives each spring. Another similarity is the farm-team milieu, a life of abridged hopes and stardom outside the Show--the thematic implication being that most of us have some kind of Show we can only admire from a distance. (Underscoring the point is a nice performance by Virginia Madsen as a small-town beauty queen.) But hope does come in Long Gone, and because of its sharp dialogue and enjoyable acting (by Dermot Mulroney, Larry Riley, Henry Gibson, Katy Boyer, and Teller) this film deserves to be included in anyone's collection of baseball features. --Tom KeoghComedy VHS Video
