Noah Gittell signs copies of BASEBALL: THE MOVIE

The first definitive history of this film genre, BASEBALL: THE MOVIE is a look back at an American pastime through the lens of films since 1915. Writer and critic Noah Gittell sheds light on popular classic films and less seen gems, and explores how this pocket of cinema presents a stage through which the ideals of America are born, performed, and defined.
