This speech is where the tears starts

You don't know the power of the baseball...

This movie had such a great cast, it’s great on so many levels.

What a wonderful speech. I wish people still talked like that. Like painting a picture right in front of your face using words as the painters pallet.

When JEJ sits back down and lets out that grunt/moan before saying “people will come” again, chills. What a genius he is

One of the best scenes in movie history. James Earl Jones is magnificent

Outside of the fact that I love baseball. I think one of my favorite things about this movie is that despite how crazy or unbelievable people thought Ray Kinsella was, he continued to push to see his vision come true. And I love that in this scene it shows that Terence Mann went from being highly skeptical in what Ray was trying to do, to being fully on board with Ray’s vision.

Id pay well over $20 to watch dead hall of famers play ball.

Only James Earl Jones could turn "bb-base-ba-hall" into four glorious syllables.

I would love to visit someday, but in the end it's not the field. It is the spirit of this great game!

I don't care who you are, what you've done, you will never be as GOAT as this speech.

The one and only James Earl Jones.

James Earl Jones

Such a heartwarming movie. So well written and acted in.

One of my all time favourite films. Had everything.... Such a simple and honest film.

Preciosa la película la vi varias veces. 😢❤

James Earl Jones is inspirational

BAD movie with James Earl Jones? HEARD of left over bacon, never seen it.

There was a negro League to.

Look at all the black players?

Amen, brothers.

Would have been cool to integrate the game with some stars from negro league

The romance in baseball is unlike any other, it is America's pastime for a reason. The one constant through the years has been baseball. True words.

UK here, was fortunate to go to a baseball game once. Anaheim Angels vs Cleveland Indians. Supported the Angels and didn't even care they lost. The atmosphere, the spirit, it really did feel what America used to be about. People there need to remember what it was like the first time they went to a game as a kid or imagine what it's like as a visitor going for the first time. So many things about the US I disagree with (states running themselves, gun laws, health insurance to name a few) but the passion and spirit of what America is, that's something you can't fault, the message has just gotten lost and needs to be found again.

I love this movie so much❤

Until baseball pissed it all down the crapper for woke rainbow cry bullies.

This scene and speech gave me a greater appreciation for history. The past is important both good and bad. Cherish it and learn from it.

Can't get past a black man trying to promote the nostalgia of 1920s era baseball when everything was "good" unlike, presumably, the present. How did they ignore that the baseball this black man was nostalgically recalling was not open to people of color and that only white people could have the memories he spoke of? In an otherwise spectacular film, the complete absence of any handling of segregation and discrimination still bugs me more than I wish.

You could have that rumbling baritone recite Mary Had a Little Lamb and it would be a hit! If you give him something that is really well written, in that baritone with James Earl Jones and grab you by the roots and just resonate!

It is natural for folks to want to retreat back to their younger days. Before time and life wears you down. A window where truth and ricghoesess was a North Star and politicians didn't destroy the dream.

People will come.....

I know All about the Field of dreams. You see I grew up in the fields of cotton, potatoes, strawberries, cherrys, tomatoes, pickles, carrots, watermelons from 5 years till I graduated in 1973. Joined the army, finished my tour, went to trade with the G. I. Bill. Got associates degree in computer electronics. Hired by I. B. M. Retired after 22 years. Fully pensioned. Yes those Fields of dreams had a major impact in my life. Thank God.

But baseball has been captured by woke ideology, by perversion, by filth unimaginable. Even a field of dreams cannot save us.

Only James Earl Jones! And only James Earl Jones could deliver this monologue in such a way with that voice. It’s so emotionally with a quiet peace. Why is there a plate of raw onions in front of me ????😥

"How can you not be romantic about baseball?"

He is right baseball has marked the time and always will.

I swear the older I get the harder that line "for it is money they have and peace they lack" hits.

First time I saw James Earl Jones was on Sesame street as a kid. Been my favorite actor ever since.

My FAVORITE Baseball movie and speech.

Never listen to the Ginger. Period.

I managed to get to the Field of Dreams from Australia last year. I just realised I sat right with Kevin Costner sat. The speech says they will pay because they have money and its peace they need. So so true, I sat and took it all in and let all the bad out. It may be Iowa but it is heaven

Imposible pasar desapersibida esa obra naestra de la cinematografia, nos rvive el epiritu, nos pone en comunicacion con la divinidad, tranquiliza nuetras sen saciones humanas, nos devuelva la fe en la humanidad, y exalta nuestros sentimientos a lo imposible con la esperanza de que SEA POSIBLE a nuestra exsistencia, he dicho, GRASIAS por llevar nuestro nespiriyu a las alturas y dormir tranqulos, he dicho, amen SMC

Baseball is Life!

Mufasa talking to a young Simba about a game called baseball...

This monologue wouldn't have been nearly as good if another actor had played the role. The conviction of James Earl Jones' voice lends authenticity to this scene. He wasn't just reciting. His facial expressions, his hand gestures, his demeanor are perfect. The movie itself was made infinitely better by the presence of Mr. Jones - a true American treasure in entertainment.

erased and rebuilt is a mixed metaphor... and by good old days, does he mean all white leagues?

It was good movie. But I wouldn't go there again. There destroying what it is. Building a motel out there. No interest of going again. Been there twice , no more.

Ray Liotta...you did good 😎👊🙏 RIP brother...

One of the greatest sports films of all time.

I've seen a lot of sports movies in my time(I'm 65 now)...Jim Thorpe-All America, Knute Rockne-All American, Pride of the Yankees, Damn Yankees, the Longest Yard(orig), Jimmy Piersall/Fear strikes out, Hoosiers, you name it...I've seen it...Field of Dreams....tops them all....and this speech by JEJ, will never be marched.
