Field of Dreams : When were Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the movie?

When were Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the movie?

Apparently they were in the fenway park scene-was that the scene where Kevin Costner hears "Go the Distance" while going to a game with James Earl Jones? Because I didn't see them there!

I call movies that are considered 'bad' hated movies.

They weren't stars when this movie was made. They were just extras in the stands. 2 of many. Finding them is like trying to find Phil Collins in the crowd in A Hard Day's Night.

That's brilliant!

Yeah thanks for posting that link. I'm a HUGE fan of Phil & gotta a big kick out of that.

That is genius.

I actually think I get a glimpse of Ben Affleck sitting behind JEJ for one take of the scene at the baseball park. Its just before JEJ says "What's the matter" after KC has seen the stuff about Moonlight Graham on the screen. For the rest of the scene there are women behind him. Didn't see Matt Damon at all.

Ben Affleck is sitting behind James Earl Jones, you can see him just after Kevin Costner sees the stuff about Archie Graham on the big screen, just before JEJ says "what's the matter". You see half of his face, he's wearing a mid blue long sleeved t shirt. I can't make out Matt Damon anywhere but since those two can't be separated I guess he was sitting right next to him.

Re: When were Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the movie?

That is really how a lot of big stars get started by doing smaller roles in films such as extras in a film before they work there way up in either a starring role or even a supporting role like how you see Kevin Costner and James Earl Jones had with this movie. The Fenway Park scene had a lot of extras that who knows what a lot of them are doing today. And plus we don't knwo where they were siting, an generally extras aren't given any speaking lines that are just in the background.
