Terrence Mann
As the intellect of Field of Dreams, James Earl Jones played Terrence Mann, the radical writer of the 60’s whose work inspired a generation, and would become a recluse afterward. Through the magic of Baseball, his pain was eased, as we see a miserable and acerbic character revert to child-like happiness. Mann gives the film a historical and generational context outside of Baseball’s realm, and how a sport can link people of diverse backgrounds.
