Squeeze Play!

Squeeze Play is a 1979 comedy film from 20th Century Fox directed by Matthew Diamond.

The idea of Squeeze Play came from one of Foxs distributors, who suggested that Kaufman and Herz should make a movie about a womens softball team and their amorous adventures. Kaufman added the comedy element, and along with his brother Charles and screenwriter Haim Pekelis, a 75page screenplay was finally worked out the Kaufmans provided the ideas for sight gags and jokes, and Pekelis worked out the plot.Once Squeeze Play was completed, the reactions were almost unanimously negative. Major studios refused to distribute it, and two of the films executive producers demanded to have their names taken off of it. ........
