Emotional Grit With Actor Charles Hoyes: The Power of Nostalgia and the Field of Dreams

Updated: Nov 22, 2023


When Charles Hoyes was cast as one of the historic baseball playing ghosts in the Field of Dreams, he knew it was a great opportunity based on the game that he loves. What he didn't know, was that the unassuming film would go on to garner Academy Award nominations, inspire MLB games onsite and continue to touch people from around the world. Yes, the years have passed, but the underlying themes of belief, hope and redemption have withstood the test of time. So whether you're watching the movie or experiencing the field in person, feelings of nostalgia can give you a sense of belonging, by connecting you with the past. Great reminder that, "If you build it... He will come."
