BULL DURHAM

A sex comedy about baseball and why the hell not! I guess if you're a fan baseball can be a real turn-on and it certainly is for Susan Sarandon, the fan who makes a point of sleeping with a new player each season and this season it's the turn of big lug Tim Robbins and let's just say that in or out of the sack these two are hot but then so is Kevin Costner as the older player assigned to Robbins' case leaving Sarandon with something of a dilemma. Written, (brilliantly), and directed, (brilliantly), by Ron Shelton and terrifically acted by the three leading actors this had classic written all over it when it appeared in 1988 and it's stood the test of time beautifully. "Bull Durham" is a sex comedy that is both sexy and funny and, believe it or not, it's pretty good on baseball, too.
