Field of Dreams is the epic story of Kevin Costner going from Iowa to Boston and
back again. Think of it like The Incredible Journey, but with baseball, a less
badass Darth Vader, and arguments with Timothy Busfield in Trump Country. Oh,
and ghosts. Did I say ghosts? Ray Liotta’s Shoeless Joe could’ve given his
Henry Hill a hard time in this one!
Family arguments abound. The brother-in-law and the wife are
growing tired of the #YOLO attitude.
Plowing up corn is rather an odd choice. Not that there is anything wrong with Philosophy majors growing corn. It’s just a bad business move to put a baseball field in the middle.
Then the kid gets all psychic after nearly dying.
Much like
Bran Stark,
her near-death was the major turning point in
the film. However, in this case, being near-death keeps the family together
instead of touching off a continent-wide war with a super prominent family.
Oh Hollywood, and your happy
endings!
