Summary: The famed slugger is played by Bendix, who resembles Ruth slightly in looks and not at all in baseball ability. The film traces the "life and times" of Ruth, including his famous "called shot" in the 1932 World Series. (imdb)

Sentimental biopic without much value. Totally misses the crazy, self-indulgent side of the Bambino.

So terrible it's kinda hilarious. The scenes where William Bendix is supposed to be a "teenage" Babe Ruth will have you on the floor.
