Image Entertainment Sets Blu-Ray and DVD Date for "The Perfect Game

Image Entertainment recently announced they will be distributing "The Perfect Game" on Blu-Ray and DVD. The film starring Clifton Collins Jr (Star Trek), Cheech Marin (Spy Kids), Emilie de Ravin (Lost) and David Koechner (Anchorman) hit shelves on August 2nd.

Press Release:

They were called "los pequeños gigantes": the little giants. In 1957, a team of impoverished baseball-loving kids from Mexico achieved the impossible. Standing tall against hardships no child should face - poverty, intolerance – they crossed the border to achieve a dream: compete in the Little League World Series. On August 2, Image Entertainment calls out The Perfect Game, a moving tale of “the little giants” who became the first international team to win the LLWS. Based on the book by W. William Winokur, The Perfect Game will be available on DVD for an SRP of $27.97 and on Blu-ray™ for an SRP of $29.97. Pre-book is July 5.

Cesar (Clifton Collins Jr., Star Trek) has returned to his native Mexico after his major league career is cut short. However, his career is reborn when a group of determined kids recruit him as coach for their rag-tag baseball team. Moises Arias (“Hannah Montana”), and Ryan Ochoa (“Pair of Kings”) costar as these resolute underdogs with Jake T. Austin (“Wizards of Waverly Place”) as Angel Macias, their ambidextrous pitcher...and the only pitcher to throw a Perfect Game in the championship game of the LLWS.

Together they form the unlikeliest of teams with the unlikeliest of goals. Cheech Marin (Spy Kids), Lou Gossett Jr. (Iron Eagle), Bruce McGill (Animal House), Emilie de Ravin (Lost) and David Koechner (Anchorman) also appear in this uplifting film directed by William Dear (Angels in the Outfield, Harry and the Hendersons).


Rated by the prestigious family-friendly Dove Foundation with five out of five “doves,” The Perfect Game is a heart-warming story in the tradition of Rudy and Hoosiers, taken from the book that Gossett Jr. himself has called “more than an instant sports classic – it is a heroic tale for the ages.”
