Field of Dreams, a film from 1989, is based on W.P. Kinsella’s novel, Shoeless Joe. Kevin Costner stars as as Ray Kinsella, a Midwestern farmer who listens to a mysterious voice in his head and builds a baseball diamond in his cornfield. James Earl Jones plays Terence Mann, a reclusive writer, and Ray Liotta is Shoeless Joe Jackson, a disgraced, legendary baseball player. This heartwarming film was nominated for three Academy Awards: Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Original Score; and for Saturn and Hugo Awards.
