The Pride of the Yankees

Year: 1942
Cast: Gary Cooper, Teresa Wright, Babe Ruth, Walter Brennan, Dan Duryea
Directed By: Sam Wood

Excellent portrait of baseball great Lou Gehrig. Beginning as he joined the Yankees in 1923, the film follows this great American through to his moving farewell speech as his career was tragically cut short by the disease that bears his name. Cooper is inspiring in the title role.
