    Bad News Bears

    “Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the world” these were the words once uttered by Babe Ruth. The Bad News Bears is a 1976 film, remade in 2005, about a little league baseball team full of misfits that were originally excluded from their Southern California baseball league for not being talented enough, but parent protest allowed for the team to be formed. The coach in charge of this team is a drunk, ex-professional baseball pitcher named Morris Buttermaker only thinking of himself and his paychecks. The team loses their first game after having to forfeit in the top of the first inning, quickly forming a rivalry with the Yankees. The team then wants to quit, but Buttermaker has a change of heart and really starts to coach the kids. After adding two more outcasts, Amanda and Kelly, the team miraculously starts winning games. They continue to improve and eventually find themselves competing for the championship against the arrogant Yankees. After a brawl and the hatred heating up the game ends with the Bears tying run being thrown out at the plate in dramatic fashion. The team doesn’t let this discourage them though, ending with a celebration for the ages. These two movies have almost identical plots but contain key differences in the main character and supporting cast.…

These aren’t just situations that I face myself, but for most people in their childhood. Now, we will see how this relates to the movie’s editing, sound, and lighting.…
