Monday Movie: Field of Dreams

In the 'baseball movie' genre, 'Field of Dreams' is considered to be a classic, a movie that mixes baseball and fantasy to create a magical world worth visiting again and again. Kevin Costner is the star (one of three baseball movies he made, the other two being 'Bull Durham,' and 'For Love of the Game') and as you probably know, plays a man who builds a baseball diamond in his corn field. The clip you are about to see takes place at the end of the film when he discovers the truth behind the mystery that has been building up throughout the story. At the end of the clip, notice the cars lined up along the road. I was watching a documentary about the movie and director Phil Alden Robinson never actually intended this to happen, but at the last minute decided that it would add a unique effect to the picture. (note, spoiler alert for those who haven't seen 'Field of dreams.')
