Speaking of Stephen King, we have his newest, limited-edition release - a baseball novella titled Blockade Billy. Of course we also have a slew of fan favorites on DVD. There's something to suit whatever your mood, whether you're looking for something dramatic (Chariots of Fire), intense (Raging Bull), inspirational (Cinderella Man), or lighthearted (Fever Pitch).
