This week Justin and I discuss the 1989 tearjerker Field of Dreams, a film about ghosts playing baseball in some guy's backyard that endures as a beloved classic of American cinema. What's going on with that? As a lifelong devotee of the film, Justin articulates why Field of Dreams hits so hard, as we explore how the secular religious magic of baseball and movies intermingle with dreams of capitalist and socialist utopias.
