Carson Lunds Nostalgic Homer Run of long-term film debut is an outsider for itself, a low-fi indie that is sort of a shabby team that’s ninth place ago. It takes up a spot today within the spring film season.
Lund played different positions himself – as a critic, cameraman and filmmaker. With “Eephus” he hits a sound personal balance that switches between joy and melancholy. During a single game, the last competition between two teams for the New England League for adults, the River Dogs and Adler's color on a field that is meant to shut, “Eephus” introduces us in an eccentric batch of mainly medium-age players in medium-sized age and clothing bars, as with the ultra-ten-ten keeper Franny (Cliff Blake), and Bayer, and it appears that evidently the River Dogs Pitcher-Pitcher-Pitcher-Pike-Pitcher-Pitcher-Pitcher-Pitcher-Puger-Dogs-Pitchern, and Pitcher, and pitchers that got here to the fore.

But Lund doesn’t attempt to mock such characters for simple laughter, as an alternative he focuses on their human and assignable weaknesses for a delicate story that touches the center and offers consolation to our nostalgic-fatal souls. Even famous Boston Red Sox Pitcher Bill “Spaceman” Lee increases the fun.
As with most baseball games, not much happens in “Eephus”. However, look under the surface and you may see that every thing in life is just about on this diamond. Take it up!
