big-screen stardom. After all, a young Dempsey

Has
it really been 20 years since we first met Annie,
Nuke LaLoosh, and the swaggering Crash Davis?
Scary, but true, and with the start of a new
baseball season upon us there's no better time to
catch up with "Bull Durham." It's the baseball
movie women can embrace as readily as the
fellas.

If
you don't get chills watching the opening scene in
"Walk the Line," well, then, you've never heard
Johnny Cash's inimitable baritone before. The

2005 release, including a Best Actress Oscar for
Reese Witherspoon's turn as June Carter
Cash. Read
