This film that profiles Hank Greenberg's life (the first ever Jewish ballplayer) is quite interesting. Mainly because I didn't know much about Greenberg before the movie. Except he was a Jewish ballplayer. But what I didn't know was that he was the first Jewish one, which meant that anti-semitism came to him like homeruns. For old people who probably know already about Hank, it is quite a memory flashback that will have some even laughing (especially with the very end showing a Marx bros. clip). For everyone else, it is interesting and of course (and like how most documentaries should be) it is for people who might not even care for the game or the man. One of the best sports documentaries to come around in a while. A-
