	Fever Pitch
		Fever Pitch may be something short of miraculous, but perhaps it isn't how you play the game that matters after all, as long as you have a "winning" personality.
		Fever Pitch is lovable enough that it legs out an infield single almost in spite of its two leads, Jimmy Fallon and Drew Barrymore.
		Fever Pitch relaxes too much at the plate, fouling off (and shaving) too many balls to get us pumped enough for the next game and likely to be forgotten by the first of May.

	Amazon.fr : Fever Pitch: Livres: Nick Hornby (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Fever Pitch is not a typical memoir--there are no chapters, just a series of match reports falling into three time frames (childhood, young adulthood, manhood).
		Brought to print to take advantage of America's presumed fascination with the '94 World Cup (the first ever held here), Fever Pitch is a 24-year obsessional diary of English club football (soccer, to us Americans) games Hornby has witnessed and the way these games have become inextricable from his personal life.
		Though Hornby does show flashes of real humor, Fever Pitch features mainly pedestrian insights on life and sport, and then it's on to the next game--the equivalent, for an American reader, of a nil-nil tie.

	Fever Pitch (2005): Reviews
		To call this "Farrelly brothers lite" may be a little redundant, but aside from the odd vomit gag, it goes relatively easy on their usual working-class taboo busting.
		Fever Pitch is surprisingly devoid of jokes, or romance, or any of the other basic elements you'd expect to find in a romantic comedy.
		"Fever Pitch" has some sensible things to say about fanaticism, loyalty and compromise, and it says them well.

	TheMovieBoy Review - Fever Pitch (2005)
		Loosely based on the novel by Nick Hornby and adapted once before in the UK in 1997, the Americanized "Fever Pitch" is a swooning love letter to not only the Boston Red Sox, but baseball in general, and not only baseball, but also true, unadulterated love itself.
		As previously mentioned, the second love story found in "Fever Pitch" is the one between Ben and his baseball team.
		Without falling into the trap of more typical sports movies, "Fever Pitch" so persuasively personifies what it is like to love something as much as Ben loves the Red Sox that all the viewer can do is nod in acknowledgment.

		FEVER PITCH is basically a tribute to English football.
		"Fever pitch" is Hornby's first well-known book, a precedent to "High fidelity" and "About a boy".
		The problem with "Fever pitch" is that, if the reader doesn't like or doesn't know soccer there will be a lot of skipped paragraphs, and maybe the book will be put aside before the end.

		Then came the several years during which the aging nucleus got hurt, began grumbling, and earned the "25 players, 25 cabs" designation, until finally all of the fish jumped out of the bathtub, and eventually Bill Lee was traded for spite and ballast.
		It's almost irresistible to answer, "Only those who've been paying attention." Schilling is 37 and coming off a year when he got hurt and won eight games while losing nine.
		In Oakland, Foulke could pitch brilliantly, night after night, without drawing undue attention to himself.

		Fever Pitch, a fable that pits true love against baseball love, is one of the most ingratiating romantic comedies in quite some time, yet the fact that it was directed by Peter and Bobby Farrelly almost works against it.
		Fever Pitch provokes tender chuckles rather than guffaws, yet you can feel the Farrelly touch in their eye for detail: Ben and his friends smelling the package of season tickets, the ingenious way that the 2004 season has been woven into the story.
		In Fever Pitch, Ben's baseball ardor becomes a funny, moving metaphor for the arrested male's inability to surrender himself entirely to love.

		Hollywood has a tendency to remake and wreck foreign films, and when word got out that the sweet Colin Firth cult hit Fever Pitch, based on Nick Hornby's novel, was being Americanized, many movie fans (and critics) cringed.

		But the most amazing thing about the making of Fever Pitch is that it actually had to be done on the fly--well, at least the ending.

		Perhaps this was a rather misguided choice, though, as although Fever Pitch is based around Hornby's childhood (and early manhood) experiences of football, it is so much more than a run-of-the-mill football book.
		Its beautifully crafted life experience stories are, admittedly, set around key Arsenal matches in the 1980s, but if this were to put of non-football fans it would truly be a shame.
		Fever Pitch is the first Hornsby book I ever read, and I enjoyed lots of it even though a bit more of it was bleak.

		This sounds like some cheap men-and-women-don't-understand-each-other setup, but instead Fever Pitch not only explores the origins of Paul's football fandom, it actually communicates an infectious sense of what that kind of sports enthusiasm can mean, how it can provide an almost tribal identity.
		As a Nick Hornby fan, I read "Fever Pitch" and found it to be very masculine.
		This is the original Fever Pitch, with the screenplay based on the novel both written by Nick Hornsby, who really knows how to write about people.

		Hornby takes the reader into the mind and obsessions of the hardcore sports fan in "Fever Pitch", a tale of the author's obsessive relationship with Arsenal, one of London's main football (soccer) clubs.
		For those who are interested in understanding how the mind of a hardcore sports fan works, "Fever Pitch" is without equal.
		Even if American readers find the football references unfamilliar, the more telling aspect is the obsessiveness with which Hornby recalls numerous minutae, the lengths to which he has gone in his life to support his Arsenal obsession...
