Audio problem: During the scene in the restaurant where Hiroko surprises Jack with the Kobe Beef dish, Hiroko's lips aren't moving when she says "Sorry, little joke!".
Mr. Baseball (1992)
1 audio problem
Directed by: Fred Schepisi
Starring: Aya Takanashi, Dennis Haysbert, Ken Takakura, Tom Selleck
Continuity mistake: Toward the end of the movie when the Dragons are facing the Giants for the Pennant, Hammer is up to bat and get a hit. When you see him round first base, they show a picture of the dugout, where you will find him holding a large hammer. It's tough to be at bat and on the bench.
Jack Elliot: Japanese way, 'Shut up and Take it'.
Hiroko Uchiyama: Jack's way, 'ME, ME, ME'! Sometimes acceptance and cooperation are strengths also.
Trivia: Jack's home run streak and the fight with the Hiroshima Carp pitcher who hit him were based on 2 actual events by 2 differnt American ex-Baseball players playing in Japan, Randy Bass and Warren Cromartie respectively.
