Cinecast #6: Fan Unfriendly

On this week's Cinecast, a review of Fever Pitch, the new romantic comedy from the Farrelly Brothers. Loosely adapted from the novel by "High Fidelity" author Nick Hornby, the film turns Hornby's long-suffering British soccer fan into a long-suffering Boston Red Sox fan (SNL alum Jimmy Fallon) who is forced to choose between the girl (Drew Barrymore) and the game. "Pitch" has a few laughs, but the Farrelly's get so many aspects of fan life wrong that it's the audience who suffers in this adaptation. Also, listener response from last week's heated discussion of Sin City and this week's Top 5 -- the best Sports Movies of all time.
