Bad News Bears Triple Play (3-Pack) (Widescreen) : Collection includes "The Bad News Bears," "The Bad News Bears In Breaking Training" and "The Bad News Bears Go To Japan." "The Bad News Bears" - A major surprise as one of 1976's top-grossing films, "The Bad News Bears" is a movie about children that is refreshing, utterly believable, and quite cleverly funny. Walter Matthau is at his absolute best as the grumbling beer-guzzling former minor-league pitcher who gets roped into coaching a band of half-pint misfits somewhat loosely called a team. With this bunch in uniform, it's impossible to get caught up in the suburban competitive spirit that drives other adults to extremes of parental discipline. So, instead, the Bears have a good time. "The Bad News Bears In Breaking Training" - "The Bad News Bears In Breaking Training" is the comic and poignant second-in-the-series of adventures with the pint-sized sandlot ballplayers initiated with the smash success, "The Bad News Bears." The picture picks up the Bears' career a year after their infamous second-place finish in the North Valley League. Faced with a chance to play the Houston Toros for a s...

In the end, perhaps the best measure of a text is whether or not one would choose it from among all the offerings to use in class. I have chosen to use this book."" - Photo Review, Spring 2000 ""An excellent introductory history book."" - Afterimage: The Journal of Media Arts and Cultural Criticism "In this wonderful and entertaining book, Hirsch has produced the most useful, readable, and practical successor to Newhall. Seizing the Light is written in a friendly, accessible way -- dense with information, but more hip and lively than other offerings, especially those aimed at college students."" - exposure: The research journal of the Society for Photographic Education. Vol. 32.2 (Fall, 1999) "Hirsch's prose is very digestible. He writes in a clear, lively style with a minimum of jargon."" - Views: the newsletter of the Visual Material Section of the Society o...
