A League of Their Own
1992
***
Director: Penny Marshall
Cast: Geena Davis, Madonna, Tom Hanks, Lori Petty, David Strathairn

An entertaining true story about a women's baseball league which was set up in 1943 when the men were away fighting in WW2. The ladies have the leading roles, but Tom Hanks steals the show as their puffy and foul-mouthed coach.
