Critics Consensus: The equally tragic and heroic story of Yankees first baseman Lou Gehrig is eloquently told here with an iconic star turn by Gary Cooper.

Keith & the Movies

Keith Garlington

“The Pride of the Yankees” is unique within its genre. It’s not your prototypical biopic. It’s more of a memorial to the beloved and respected star player from the New York Yankees.

There's no denying that The Pride of the Yankees is a classic sports film but it suffers like so many biopics in covering too much time in just over two hours.

This film is well worth seeing. It is an ideal part for Gary Cooper.

Cooper - at more than 40 years old - has a difficult time being convincing (the real Gehrig was actually a teenager, signing with the Yankees when he was only 19).

I'm touched watching 'The Pride of the Yankees', the biopic directed by Sam Wood that tells the story of legendary baseball player Lou Gehrig. [Full review in Spanish]
