Baseball factors heavily into the premise of Field of Dreams, but it’s the underpinning themes of redemption and catharsis that make the movie memorable. Ray Kinsella takes advantage of an opportunity to right past wrongs. Namely, he is able to mend severed ties with his deceased father through a process of painful admission, analytical self-reflection, and sacrifice.

We won’t ask you to admit your past wrongs (or sacrifice anything) here, but we will test your knowledge of movie. How much do you know about one of the most beloved baseball films of all time?

  1. 8/10…good quiz, but got some problems with #4. Two of the books were never mentioned on the list (Maybe you meant to put The Wizard of Oz, which was mentioned, as one of your choices), and one of those was not mentioned by name until later in the movie.

    And no mention of li’l Karin, the one who, as a baby, “smelled a little funny, but we loved her anyway”? That was one of my favorite lines from the movie.

  2. They’ve apparently pulled question #4, as there were only nine questions when I took the quiz just now (got 8 for 9; didn’t remember the name on the door).

  3. 9 for 9. This is without a doubt my favorite all-time movie. I’m pretty sure the Godfather question… the headline was ‘one of this year’s best’ not ‘the year’s’. Ray Kinsella looked at it and said ‘this year’s?’

    Anyway, thanks for throwing some classic sports movie quizzes in (Major League) was great too!

  4. 9/9 This is one of my favorite movies. It makes me cry every time I see it. Thanks for the quiz!

    recaptcha: scale 12,644 (I think that’s how many times I have seen this movie.)
