Field of Dreams (1989)
1 easter egg
Directed by: Phil Alden Robinson
Starring: Kevin Costner, Ray Liotta, Burt Lancaster, James Earl Jones, Amy Madigan
Factual error: Joe Jackson batted left-handed in real life, not right-handed as Ray Liotta portrayed. He also threw right-handed and not left-handed like it shows when Kevin Costner is hitting him fly balls to left field.
Ray Kinsella: I know more about farming than you think I do.
Mark: Well then how could you plow under a major crop?
Ray Kinsella: What's a crop?
Trivia: Then unknown, Ben Affleck and Matt Damon are among the thousands of extras in the Fenway Park scene.
Question: At the end of the movie, the Voice is credited as Himself. Who was really responsible for doing the voice that sent Ray on his journey?

Answer: It was actually his own voice (Kevin Costner) that sent him on the journey. At the end of the movie there's even the part where Ray is recalling the voices he heard and turned to Shoeless Joe Jackson and says, "It was you". At which point Joe Jackson turns around and says, "No Ray. It was you".
