Eine Klasse für sich (1992)
27KEine Klasse für sich: Directed by Penny Marshall. With Tom Hanks, Geena Davis, Lori Petty, Madonna. Two sisters join the first female professional baseball league and struggle to help it succeed amidst their own growing rivalry.
“u0026quot;A League of Their Ownu0026quot; tells a story that is rarely discussed in historical circles. The country is immersed in World War II and it is up to the women to keep professional baseball going. The film follows the sometimes rocky relationship between two sisters (Geena Davis and Lori Petty) who go from a small town in the midwest to the major leagues. Tom Hanks does outstanding work as the former player who now manages their team. Madonna and Rosie Ou0026#39;Donnell are among the other girls on the team who keep Hanks on his toes. Penny Marshallu0026#39;s direction is very solid here and she tells the story with a dignified style and grace that works well on the silver screen. A very good comedy-drama from the early-1990s. 4 stars out of 5.”
