Moneyball

“What are you really worth?”

In 2002, the Oakland Athletics lose their best players to richer teams, and general manager Billy Beane (Brad Pitt) has about a third of the money the big clubs spend. He hires Peter Brand (Jonah Hill), a young numbers man, to find overlooked players through statistics. Bennett Miller follows the two of them, an old scout's hunch set against a spreadsheet, as Beane learns to lean on a man who has never played the game.
