I watched this without expectation, because I didn't follow MLB before marrying a spirts fan and reading the Sports Illustrated that arrived in our mailbox each week.I watched
I watched "Reggie" to learn about a person, a time, a place. I knew about his three home runs on three pitches in the 1977 World Series, and was interested in seeing some film of that building excitement. Who doesn't like the Hollywood melodrama Cinderella story in real life?
That part then, was almost anti-climactic since It was was anticipated. What moved me and made me say "Wow" was listening to the voices and words of real people making their comments, telling their stories. It is an eye-opening history lesson.
Like most all biographies, it is titled as the story of a person, but gives you much more to think about.
What was going on daily, what was normal at that time, actions that other people, besides the main subject, were taking, what they were doing is also fascinating.
I watched this documentary to learn about one interesting person, but as usual with history, came away with much knowledge and food for thought on more subjects than Reggie Jackson.
