Plot summary

American Pastime tells a poignant story set against the Japanese-American internment camps during World War II. Rounded up and uprooted from their everyday lives, they remained loyal to the United States and ironically turned to that most American of sports - baseball - as a way to deal with their plight.

The only words I can come up with

The only words I can come up with, to discribe this movie is, moving, inspiring, thoughtful, but most of all WATCH IT! Nine 'critics' can only come up with 33%? They better get retrained for some other type of employment!

American Pastime is personal favorite of mine on

American Pastime is personal favorite of mine on many levels of appreciation. The forced removal of loyal Japanese Americans and their families sent to concentration camps with their Civil Rights denied, has hardly been mentioned in our education system explaining the Executive Order 9066 signed by FDR for placing 120,000 Japanese American into 10 concentration camps throughout the United States during the beginning of WWII. American Pastime tells the how baseball served as a distraction to the incarcerees to help uplift their spirits during this very dark and shameful period of American history. My family was incarcerated from San Jose and sent to Topaz, Utah where this film takes place. My mother and father never talked about their incarceration and it wasn't until I was in college did I learned about this atrocity inflicted upon upstanding and loyal American citizens. American Pastime reveal the strength and dignity of the Japanese Americans and the will to be loyal to a country that so ill-treated them as citizens.
