Bull Durham
Romance is a lot like baseball. It's not whether you win or lose. It's how you play the game.
A warm, playful romantic comedy about mentorship and desire set against the backdrop of minor-league baseball, where the game becomes a metaphor for how to live well.
Veteran catcher Crash Davis is brought to the minor league Durham Bulls to help their up and coming pitching prospect, "Nuke" Laloosh. Their relationship gets off to a rocky start and is further complicated when baseball groupie Annie Savoy sets her sights on the two men.
