Moneyball
Been saving this one for after baseball season ended and I needed a pick-me-up to tide me over until the next season, guess all those LOTR crossover posts did their job.
Something that really struck me on this watch was how <PERSON> maintained his classic rhythm without giving into his tendency to stuff it with too many words that fit together just so. “Writerly” is such an inadequate criticism of his style but no one could misapply it here (thanks to <PERSON>, I’m guessing). Sometimes it pays to work as a team. Hey, that could be the message of this movie! 647
