What do you get when you cross beauty pageants, bruised egos, and a Texas teen on wheels? Ocean and Jim roll into Whip It to unpack coming-of-age chaos, roller derby mayhem, and the moment Babe Ruthless earns her name.
This week, Ocean Murff and Jim Pullen review For Love of the Game, the 1999 Kevin Costner film that is as much about loss as it is about baseball. It is a film where the act of throwing a baseball is about memory, regret, and the search for meaning in the final moments of a career.
