Plot summary

As its title implies, this video attempts to go beyond the public persona of one of major league baseball's greatest stars. Accepting Ruth as a larger-than-life figure, this 59-minute video doesn't attempt to rationalize, apologize, or analyze his behavior. Rather, it endeavors to present an unbiased account of the life of George Herman Ruth, contradictions and all.

A Glimpse into the Life of The Great Bambino

Babe Ruth's legacy is something hard to grasp especially in an hour long documentary, but this film does it justice.Growing up as a baseball and specifically a Yankees fan I had only ever heard of Babe Ruth's life and career through family, friends, and television but this film covers so much more that many people may not be aware of if they are not already deeply entrenched in the lore of the Sultan of Swat. Sure this doc continues the mythical legend but it also reminds us of his humanly errors throughout his life.I recommend this film for all baseball fans, new and old as it will either reignite your interest in America's Pastime or spark the flame to dig deeper into the sport that has helped shape the United States and its culture.

"If Babe Ruth had not existed, it would have been impossible to invent him."

A decent intro to the "Bambino"

If you're a fan of Babe Ruth (and who isn't who knows anything at all about baseball) then you won't find much new here. But if you think "Babe Ruth" is a candy bar, then this is mandatory viewing and will give you a good introduction to the Babe - his remarkable pitching abilities, the "king of swat", and his personal strengths and foibles.
