"Today I would like to say a few words about a movie that is very dear to me, Tin Cup. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this movie let me try and give you a sense of it. Tin Cup is a sports movie (golf) starring Kevin Costner and Rene Russo. The movie is about a man who is a very talented golf player who likes to take big risks and has consequently never had much of a career. All of this changes when he meets a woman he wants to impress (who is dating his former college gold partner who is now a professional golfer).

They likely deserve their places at the top of the list, especially Raging Bull. As to the rest of the films, I have a lot of affection for Breaking Away (1979) and really, it's a lovely little film that I'd put higher on the list. I also like Hoosiers (1986) and Bull Durham (1988), but they both have obvious flaws (as Anne-Marie noted, the basketball film falls short in its depiction of the on-the-court action; the final is especially poorly paced and shot and edited in an oblique way. I've always thought that Bull Durham's final act stretched on a little too long, needlessly deferring Annie and Crash's final settling in together). For the remainder, well, I don ... "

"Kevin Costner in a sports film…what a shock. But he just does it so darn well!! Cheech (without Chong) manages to get through the film without firing up a bong, which is something. The scene where Roy throws away his chance to win the U.S. Open is classic. "
