Hey Dad. Do you want to have a catch?

If there was ever a film that could make any man cry, this is it.

My father and I never had a catch. He taught me about life, never gamble, don't smoke, and drink occasionally. He was a proud factory worker and a "jack of all trades" as he called himself... As I grew older and played all sports, he was content to just watch. A simple man from the hills of Kentucky to the car factories of Detroit... We talked about common sense, watch your money and watch your back, always. I've been to 7 continents of this earth and always have come back safe. Thanks Dad...He taught me quite well Chuck in Michigan U.S. Navy Retired

As a young boy, I remember my Father coming home from working hard all day. Dad worked two jobs to support his family. There would be many times I would be in bed asleep when he got home. The following day he would leave early for another start to his day. There were times though where he would make it home in the afternoon and had off from his second job. I loved Baseball as he did too. I asked him the very same thing…. To have a catch with me. He never denied me as tired as he was. I will never forget those times of my youth. The love a Father gives his son. This scene puts tears in my eyes and warmth in my heart. Thank You Dad, for telling and showing me that if you believe in yourself, Dreams come true. I love and miss you. Your Loving Son…..

This scene always make me cry . I lost my Dad in 1988 , he was only 61 , now i am older than him . I would love to sprnd an hour with him , ask him all the questions i never got to when he was alive , tell him how much i love him , that i miss him , and tell him he was my Hero . Love you Dad xxxxxx

When I was a kid in the 60’s my dad would come home from work and no matter how tired he was, he wanted to play catch. What I wouldn’t give for a 10 minute catch.

1. Ray almost calls him his father, 2. John says, "I could have sworn it was heaven", he knows there's something unusual here. My favorite movie, I've seen it 70 times. My Dad died in '87, and I was lucky to squeeze every ounce of love from our relationship, but I didn't cry a lot at the funeral or thereafter. In '89 my wife and I were on one of our first dates when she took me; she had to carry me out of the theater. This movie really helped me express my grief for my father's loss.

The guy acting as his father was my roommate when I was in college. His ex-girlfriend was my girlfriend at the time, while he was trying to make it in the movie business. He was struggling and so broke he had to live in his car, so we invited him in. A year later he got hired for this and we were so proud to watch it in the theatre.

Just a phenomenal scene. I’ve seen Costner interviewed many times and he always tells how they didn’t really know where the film was heading while they were creating it. No fights, no love scenes, no action and it suddenly hit them that they weren’t making a simple ‘baseball’ movie or a whimsical tale of a farmer building a field….what they’d stumbled upon was about the relationship between fathers and sons and everything - the good, the bad and crucially, the things unsaid - and what we’d do differently if we had a second chance. No film, before or since, has captured that as perfectly as this. When people look back on Costners career in years to come, they’ll be citing Dances with Wolves, The Untouchables, JFK but for me….as great as those films are, it could be the last five minutes of Field of Dreams that captures him best. A classic and the kind of film that wouldn’t get made now. That in itself, makes it a genuine treasure.

The line delivery is perfect. "Dad?" "Yeah?" "Wanna have a catch?" Oh god.

Probably the most touching scene in movie history..at least for me.

When Jon's voice broke when he realized his son recognized him and asked for a catch gets me every time

A good friend once told me, "Spend as much time as you can with your folks. One day they won't be there anymore and you'll realize how much you miss them."

As close as a movie gets to perfect.

Hug your dads while you have them. Love hard and love long.

When of the greatest father/son scenes in movie history. Pure gold. Takes every man back to his childhood

Any one who ever means anything to you has an effect on your life who you are and how you act. You will always carry a piece of that person with you in your heart. A person is never gone until they are forgotten. Never forget and they will always be with you. Remember the good times forget the bad. There is nothing wrong with living in a dream world at least once in a while. If that is what makes you happy do it.

When he asked his Dad if "You want to have a catch?" I lost it. It makes me wish I could play catch with my Dad again. He died of cancer as a result of Agent Orange from his tour in Vietnam. He passed in 2013. This scene has never struck me like this before, until now. If you have a Dad, call him, tell him you love him. God knows I wish I could right now. Life is so short, and just as quickly it can be taken from you. There is so much we take for granted in this life, and we only have one shot at it. Make it count folks.

Trying to figure out what kind of people the 40 are that gave it a thumbs down? One of the greatest movie endings ever.

Truly one of the most remarkable scenes ever in a movie. You have to have a heart of stone to watch this without having any emotion.

I miss playing catch with my dad.
