The Pride Of The Yankees (1942)
Colorized Version
His talent made him a legend. His courage made him a hero. Gary Cooper is "nothing short of wonderful" (The Motion Picture Guide) in this moving true story of Lou Gehrig, the Hall of Fame ballplayer who reached the heights of stardom... only to face tragedy with a dignity that inspired a nation. Nominated for eleven Academy Awards®, including Best Picture, The Pride of the Yankees is a "glorious and inspiring" (The Hollywood Reporter) sports classic.
Lou Gehrig's boyhood dreams come true when he signs on with the New York Yankees and takes the field alongside his idol, Babe Ruth. In fact, Lou considers himself (the luckiest man in the world".... Until unthinkable misfortune strikes and he must summon all his courage to face his toughest battle yet.
