'42'( Warner Bros. / April 5, 2013 )
The players: Chadwick Boseman stars as Jackie Robinson and Harrison Ford plays Branch Rickey, the Dodgers general manager who signed the baseball player to the team. Rickey's great-granddaughter, Kelley Jakle, also has a small role in the film.
How it changed the game: Robinson, who wore number 42, is universally revered for breaking the color barrier in Major League Baseball in 1947. |
