The Chosen (1981) is a movie version of The Chosen, in which two Jewish boys from opposite backgrounds (religious and secular) become friends. Reuven is pinch-hitting in a softball game when Danny hits the ball directly into his face, shattering his glasses and injuring his left eye. In the hospital, Reuven angrily rejects Danny's apology; at home, he reflects on the "gift" of health which he had always taken for granted.
