Its an overly romanticized, sappy, not-too-accurate portrayal of Gehrig's life, but I love the movie! Cooper was superb, and the ending scenes in the Stadium give me the chills.

FWIW - The LOUDEST cheer I ever heard at the Stadium was for Mrs. Lou Gehrig and Mrs. Babe Ruth who threw out the first ball in a game I attended in the mid 60's.
