Sugar (English and Spanish w/e.s.t.)
Like many young men in the Dominican Republic, 19-year-old Miguel ``Sugar'' Santos (Algenis Perez Soto) dreams of winning a slot on an American baseball team. Indeed, his talents as a pitcher eventually land him a slot on a single-A team in Iowa, but culture shock, racism and other curveballs threaten to turn Sugar's dream sour.

I can't imagine a baseball fan - or a moviegoer - who wouldn't respond on some level to the new film "Sugar," a rich and moving reminder of the way professional sports aspirations can shape someone's destiny in the real world, as opposed to the mythological realm of "The Natural." Now, you may love "The Natural" the way I love "Bull Durham." But "Sugar" is something else.
