DVD: Fear Strikes Out   Classic Film > 1957   DVDs   Fear Strikes Out    Discs    DVD Release Date       Fear Strikes Out   1   March 4, 2003   check prices     From its early scenes of a young Jimmy Piersall literally suffering his father's abusive determination that the boy should play baseball, Robert Mulligan's 1957 Fear Strikes Out becomes more about mental health than love of the game. But this is a compelling drama about the real-life Piersall's gradual breakdown one season before a national audience, the legacy of his domineering dad's overbearing ways. (Karl Malden plays Piersall's father.) Mulligan (To Kill a Mockingbird) brings his usual, civilized mix of poignancy and dramatic urgency to the proceedings, keeping any viewer (sports fan or not) involved. Perkins looks out of place on the field and is meant to appear that way; his fragility and intensity underscore the sad tale of Piersall's woes. --Tom Keogh   More...       See also: Classic Film on DVD - 1930-1969 1930   1931   1932   1933   1934   1935   1936   1937   1938   1939 1940   1941   1942   1943   1944   1945   1946   1947   1948   1949 1950   1951   1952   1953   1954   1955   1956   1957   1958   1959 1960   1961   1962   1963   1964   1965   1966   1967   1968   1969   Top Films on DVD - Oscar® Winners and Nominees A   B   C   D   E   F   G   H   I   J   K   L   M   N   O   P   Q   R   S   T   U   V   W   X   Y   Z   NowChannel TV Shows on DVD Classic TV   Entire Series on DVD Classic Film   Oscar® Winners More Genres of DVD   Oscar® is a registered trademark of Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.
