The Life and Times of Hank Greenberg

Pioneer Valley Jewish Film Festival
at Pleasant Street Theater
Sunday March 21, 3:00pm only
All seats $7.50

As one Festival screening volunteer said, "Who knew that a sports un-enthusiast like me would love this film?" Tall, handsome, and good-natured, Hank Greenberg was a secular Jew from the Bronx who became an icon as the first Jewish star in the major leagues. Aviva Kempner's loving tribute is full of wonderful old footage and interviews with Greenberg and his Tiger teammates. You don't need to love baseball to love this film, but no baseball fan - young or old - will want to miss it!

Doc. | 1999 | 95 min. | English | Director: Aviva Kempner
