DVD: American Pastime

June 15, 2007

00american From Bob Timmermann at Griddle.baseballtoaster.com, a review of American Pastime, a film about baseball as played by Japanese Americans who were confined to internment camps during World War II. His bottom line: “it cover[s] a worthy subject and it avoids being preachy, even though the topic of Japanese internment could easily be covered that way.”

Timmermann’s opinion aside, the few other critiques I’ve seen about this project indidcate it to be very cliche driven, but so are most other sports films so give it a chance.
