All of this would work better if Robinson built up the reality of the town more, made the citizens a more palpable presence, as Frank Capra did in Hollywood's greatest fable-fantasy, It's a Wonderful Life. | |
The sentimentality, of which there is plenty, is nicely balanced by a humor of ironic pragmatism, as when Ray, having built his baseball field as a monument to human dreams, decides to charge tourists $20 a head to visit it. |

Actually, I bought this DVD to replace the old VHS copy that had lots of wear. I love this movie, have visited The Field of Dreams a couple of times, and grew up close to Galena, Illinois, where part of it was filmed.

Though there is a near vaccuum at the center of the film, Sommersby is never boring, largely because of Ms. Foster's beautifully self-possessed presence. | |
From start to finish, it is a well-crafted film: part love story, part mystery, and all drama. |

Jones' re-creation of his stage role is an eye-riveting experience. The towering rages and unrestrained joys of which his character was capable are portrayed larger than life. | |
One of those liberal, well-meaning, fervently uncontroversial works that pretend to tackle contemporary problems by finding analogies at a safe remove in history. |

Seems to take its name not so much from the Arlington Memorial Cemetery, where much of the action takes place, but from the stiffness of the characters it portrays. | |
There's a pervasive and worrying sense of the central issues being gently but undeniably fudged. |
