Sports in Films
Sports have always been major film subjects. Fat City (1972), Rocky (1976) and Raging Bull (1980) examine the brutal sport of boxing. Bull Durham (1988) captures the spirit of baseball and Hoosiers (1986) the important world of American high school basketball. The Hustler (1961) and its sequel The Color of Money (1986) show us the often seedy world of professional pool hustling (billiards).
