On its surface, The Phenom, out now, is a baseball movie, but it doesn’t take long to realize that this is no Bull Durham. The opening credits, written in cursive scrawl against a backdrop of floral wallpaper, beneath the sound of a swooning symphony, are a good first hint. The unconventional shots—a camera facing the sky as rain begins to fall, the shadow of a cloud drifting quietly across the mound—signal something different, too.
