Nice Movie About A Great Player and Genuinely-Nice Man
A lot of non-baseball fans still liked this movie a lot, and that’s probably because it’s more about a nice guy than it is about a ballplayer. New York Yankee great Lou Gehrig is the subject. Gehrig was often in the shadow of the great Babe Ruth, but was tremendous player in his own right and a far better human being.

It’s tough to find many nicer movies than this one: a totally inoffensive, sentimental and old- fashioned film about a super-nice guy, played by a popular actor: Gary Cooper. Except for one sportswriter, there were no villains or nasty people in this movie.

Teresa Wright plays “Eleanor Twitchell,” who becomes Gehrig’s wife and Walter Brennan plays sportswriter and friend, “Sam Blake.” The real Babe Ruth played himself, which was nice to see.

Even though Gehrig died at a fairly young age of a disease now named after him, overall this was a feel-good movie of the highest sort. This was so nice a story that even the cynical critics dared not criticize it. It leaves you with tears in your eyes at the end.

True Blue Lou
This is simply a lovely film period. I can take or leave Gary Cooper but it’s difficult to think of anyone who was acting at the time who could have equalled let alone eclipsed Cooper in this role, he IS Lou Gehrig just as some sixty-odd years later Marion Cotillard WAS Edith Piaf. English born and bred I have yet to see a live baseball game but I love reading about the sport as it was played when it was STILL a sport rather than a business, by which I mean the thirties, forties and fifties; I liked especially reading about the Brooklyn Dodgers and Boston Red Sox and tended to feel contemptuous of the Yankees who seemed to win everything too easy. Nevertheless I became a Yankee rooter for the duration of this movie, which was over too quickly. Cooper and Teresa Wright were unsurpassable as Lou and Eleanor Gehrig and after a while the baseball element was incidental to their enduring love. Nothing less than ten stars will do for this truly moving motion picture.
