Plot Summary
Genres: Biography, Drama, Sport
Tagline: Everyone hated this baseball legend. And he loved it.
Plot Outline A reporter hired to write the 'official' biography of Ty Cobb discovers just how dark the baseball legend's real story is.
Plot Synopsis: Al Stump is a famous sports-writer chosen by Ty Cobb to co-write his official, authorized 'autobiography' before his death. Cobb, widely feared and despised, feels misunderstood and wants to set the record straight about 'the greatest ball-player ever,' in his words. However, when Stump spends time with Cobb, interviewing him and beginning to write, he realizes that the general public opinion is largely correct. In Stump's presence, Cobb is angry, violent, racist, misogynistic, and incorrigibly abusive to everyone around him. Torn between printing the truth by plumbing the depths of Cobb's dark soul and grim childhood, and succumbing to Cobb's pressure for a whitewash of his character and a simple baseball tale of his greatness, Stump writes two different books. One book is for Cobb, the other for the public.
Actors: Tommy Lee Jones, Robert Wuhl, ****** Davidovich, Ned Bellamy, Scott Burkholder

*************
I just watched it. I bet that his biography is a very interesting read. They only have time in the movie to tell a few stories. I thought Tommy Lee Jones was outstanding.
