Re: 61*
Probably in the top 5 things HBO has ever produced, and that's saying something. Billy Crystal did a great job directing this. And the two leads are very good. A very great, if long at times sports drama.

Don't remember much as it's been a while, but I recall loving it. One of the better sports movies out there, and very underrated. I especially liked Mantle's arc.
