"The Sandlot" may just look like it's about baseball, but moreover, it's about friendship, with some nostalgia thrown in. Set in 1962, Scotty Smalls moves into a new neighborhood. Uncertain of the area at first, he becomes friends with some boys in a baseball field known as the Sandlot. Over the summer, they try to get girls, battle a rival team, and do a few things that they shouldn't have. All the while, they have to remember about a dog known as "The Beast".
As someone who has never been interested in sports, I seemingly wouldn't take any stock in this movie. But I did. I admit that Karen Allen, as Scotty's mom, and Denis Leary, as her boyfriend, are the only cast members whom I recognize, but it's a really interesting movie.
