Aaron hit number 715 on 8 April 1974, moving him past the record 714 career homers of Babe Ruth.

He was elected to baseball's Hall of Fame in 1982. Aaron published his autobiography, I Had a Hammer, in 1991. San Francisco Giants slugger Barry Bonds passed Aaron's home run record by hitting his 756th home run on 7 August 2007. （Who2 Biography）

Enchanted 魔法奇緣
Enchanted is a Disney comedy-fantasy-musical film. Princess Giselle （Amy Adams） lives in the blissful animated world of Andalasia, where magical beings frolic freely and musical interludes punctuate every interaction.
Though Princess Giselle is currently engaged to be married to the handsome if lunkheaded Prince Edward （James Marsden）, her fate takes a turn for the worse when the villainous Queen Narissa （Susan Sarandon）, throws her through a magic portal, apparently to her doom.
But Giselle's plunge into darkness lands her in a strange new world - the unforgiving metropolis of New York City. As the cruelty of the big city soon begins to wear down the fairy-tale exterior of the once carefree princess, the frightened Giselle soon finds herself falling for a friendly, flawed, and engaged divorce lawyer Rob （Patrick Dempsey） whose blend of compassion and street smarts help her to survive and build a happy life in a harsh town. And while Rob is initially a difficult host, he and his daughter Morgan （Rachel Covey） also begin to be won over by the strange beauty's charms. But Giselle is soon stressed by Rob's lovable fiancee, Nancy （Idina Menzel）.
However, as Giselle's confidence recovers, her presence in Manhattan begins to cause strange side effects in the fabric of reality. Edward, who follows her, does little to help matters, and worse is to come when Narissa, armed with her pet dragon, arrives in New York. The animated world and the real one are about to collide, and Giselle must choose between Edward and Rob. （wikipedia）
