So, Babe Ruth (1998) is this documentary that really dives into the man behind the myth. It runs for 59 minutes and feels like a straightforward yet engaging look at his life. The pacing is pretty steady, not rushed at all, allowing you to soak in all those little details about his personality and impact. It's not about apologizing for his antics or dissecting his legacy too much, which I kind of appreciate. The atmosphere feels raw and honest, almost like sitting down with someone who knew him. There are some neat archival footage and interviews, giving it a bit of a personal touch. It’s distinctive for how it doesn’t shy away from Ruth’s complexity, just lays it out there for you to ponder.
