Bull Durham
Ron Shelton was a former minor league baseball player and used his experience as the basis for the story.,In her opening monologue, Annie says, "There are 108 beads in a Catholic rosary and there are 108 stitches in a baseball." While a set of Hindu or Buddhist prayer beads has 108 beads (and, indeed, the number 108 figures prominently in Eastern religions), the most commonly used Catholic rosary has only 59 beads.,Annie Savoy: The world is made for people who aren't cursed with self awareness.,At the end of the 2002 Special Edition DVD (both sides), the MGM lion is seen with the MGM/UA Telecommunications byline, and the roar track that is used is the second roar from the 1982 logo.,Featured in Siskel & Ebert: Big Business/A Taxing Woman/The Presidio/Bull Durham/Travelling North (1988),Centerfield

By arrangement with Warner Special Products,'Bull Durham' is definitely one of those movies you can't get enough of. Not a drama, but more of a sexy, laid back film. Tim Robbins was great in the movie, a little low on brains, but still very vulnerable. Susan Sarandon was very persuasive in this movie, the kind of a woman all of the guys like. Kevin Costner was so great, his theories were untouchable. A great combination of everything that a movie should have to offer. Gives a new meaning to 'home run', and baseball.,
