Many of our sports stories deal with the idea of redemption, of coming back from difficulty to make things right, or to start over in a positive direction. Perhaps it is someone who was once a tragic hero who has turned his or her life around. Through the lens of the theme of redemption, analyze the film Field of Dreams and one other sports story we have read or film we have viewed in class.( the other sports movie is DARE TO DREAM) You could find the movie on Youtube
