Field of Dreams

Probably Unanswerable Questions

Did Terrence Mann come back from heaven, or was he dead all along? Does Ray ever feel guilty about charging $20 a car? Where do the visitors park and use the bathroom? When does the government notice the traffic? How did they talk the umpires into coming back? Who is the voice? Why could Archie exist off the field but not leave it? Can only good people see the ghosts?

  • Did Terrence Mann ever come back from heaven; a popular internet theory says he was dead the whole time, which is why he can enter the corn, countered by the Red Sox game, the newspaper article about him missing and his father's call; the hosts think he comes back, announcing heaven is real with the 1919 Black Sox and no Negro League players.
  • Does Ray ever feel bad about commodifying his emotional breakthrough by charging everyone 20 bucks; no, not in the least; the business plan is questioned, where the cars park, plow more corn, where they go to the bathroom, though hippies used to walking to Woodstock won't mind.
  • Did anyone get suspicious of a long line of traffic in Iowa, at what point does the government or the X Files get involved; how did they talk the umpires into coming back when being yelled at by Chick Gandil isn't fun, unless they sensed pitch framing coming.
  • Who is the voice, already covered; if Archie could live outside the diamond, why couldn't he leave it; whether only the good people can see the ghosts, answered that it's about open-mindedness and spiritual awakening rather than a judgment on morality.
  • During the nitpicks, the implication that Terrence Mann will come back prompts the question of whether he is dead, parked for unanswerable questions.

  • The field is tight: James Earl Jones is not eligible, Frank Whaley is liked but not a heat-check performance, Busfield is doing the most with the same Ray, you gotta sell the farm, why didn't you tell me routine.
  • Art LaFleur as Chick Gandil (transcribed 'Chick Gandal'), the first baseman, is liked, with his you get a cigarette lines; all the White Sox guys are great.
  • The Busfield character prompts a memory of parents paying the bills at the kitchen table and then fighting; Busfield is initially given the Waiters Award.
  • Gabby Hoffman is raised, every moment a heat check, she's great; a host's daughter at six was as great as her and yelled at goalies at Kings games, so Karen would have been a heckler; the award switches to Karen with an apology to Busfield (transcribed 'Westfield').
