Fever Pitch Movie Review

Fever Pitch

Ben is a friendly and nice 9th grade math teacher. One day, he falls in love with a successful business woman Lindsey. Lindsey thinks Ben is a perfect guy. But, his friends wonder why he is still single. They think if you are perfect, before the age of 30, should be married or divorced.

To solve the mystery, Lindsay asks Ben if there’s anything that Ben hasn’t told her which might ruin their relationship. Here comes the moment, Ben confesses that he is a huge fan of Boston Redsox. Is that all? Lindsay thinks. She gladly accepts the fact that her boyfriend is the most pathetic creature on the earth, which is a Redsox fan.

Up until the baseball season begins, their relationship goes really smooth.
Once the season has started, Ben’s focus shifts to the baseball games. Ben’s uncle left him Redsox season tickets and he is always popular among his friends. Lindsey tries going to the Pen way Ball Park. Unfortunately, she gets hit by a foul ball and hurt badly.

Lindsey decides to break up with Ben. Ben realizes that baseball is just a game. He decides to sell his season tickets. When Lindsey hears this, she realizes that Ben really loves him. They get back together. The important thing is that this all happened in 2004.
That’s the year when Redsox broke the curse of Bambino and won the World Series.
They haven’t won the Series in the past 86 years.

Since I am a great fan of Major League Baseball, I enjoyed the movie very much.
I realized that in every relationship, I need to understand other people’s needs and likes.
This is the only way to keep a long-term relationship. I should apply this valuable lesson immediately.
