The Pullman book looks awesome too. Looks like it would be a nice historical compliment to David Mariniss’s ‘Clemente’ (which I loved), only covering a figure a generation or so earlier.

The movie didn't leave any lasting memories for me other than a scene where Paige expresses frustration to his wife that Jackie Robinson was the first player to break the MLB color line. He dimissively refers to Robinson as a "college boy". While the subject of only one biography, Paige was immortalized in the made for TV movie starring Lou Gosset Jr., “Don’t Look Back”.
