OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Field of Dreams Makes the Farmhouse a Family-Belief Engine
The field works because belief has property cost. A mystical instruction becomes land use, marital pressure, public embarrassment, and finally family repair.
Why it works
The baseball diamond turns unresolved fatherhood into geography. The audience accepts the magic because the screenplay keeps charging it through mortgage, marriage, and reputation.
