DOCtober: Jews and Baseball

Join us throughout baseball season for a cinema series filled with baseball classics, documentaries, and family films that examine, commemorate, and celebrate America’s love of the game. About Jews and Baseball: An American Love Story (USA, 2010, 91 minutes) This first major documentary to chronicle Jewish involvement in baseball spans from the 1860s to the present, sweeping audiences across time and touching on various social and political issues along the way. Players, writers, and—most importantly—fans explore their connections to baseball and what the sport has meant to them. Look forward to clips of Larry King, Ron Howard, and even Sandy Koufax in a rare interview! Narrated by Dustin Hoffman. Featuring Director Peter Miller. DOCtober Series also includes: The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg (October 19)
