I'm the guy that tears up watching Field of Dreams.
Not when James Earl Jones gives his "because baseball" speech. Not in any impassioned Amy Madigan diatribe. Certainly not in any scene with Ray Liotta. But you know the one -- when Ray Kinsella asks his Dad if he wants to have a catch.
I'm embarrassed by that fact. Because that's what the scene was written for, almost pandering to that father-son bond. But it resonates nonetheless.
My Dad was born and raised in Roslyn, Washington. You might have seen it in a re-run of Northern Exposure.
