Description
Summary:
Joe DiMaggio was more than the most complete all-around player of his generation, more than an icon: he was the one and only Joe DiMaggio. He burst onto the scene in 1936, helping the Yankees to win 10 pennants and 9 Series. When he retired in 1951, he had a lifetime average of .325, and two home run crowns--after serving three years in the military during World War II. Combining historic photographs, newsreel footage, and film clips with reminiscences by former teammates, journalists, chance acquaintances and biographers, this film presents a look at the life of an enduring symbol of baseball greatness, a living symbol of excellence, elegance, power, and gentleness.
