Bobby Jones, la carrera de un genio

I'm not a golfer and if I'd known this was a "golf movie" I probably would have stayed home. I knew Jones was a famous golfer but this film transcended golf--and for an independent film it had a real Chariots of Fire kind of spirit to it! This elegant, classically told and beautifully photographed homage to the Jones legacy is not only entertaining but there's some great truths contained in the dialogue. (They'll forgive you for losing but not for quitting). I attended a sneak advance screening of the film. The whole theme of the evening was a `life well lived' and was very inspiring. The more I've (now) read about Jones the more I appreciate this film about a humble guy whose integrity, sportsmanship and refusal to play for money made him a role model for the ages. It's not surprising I guess, to see that some critics seem to have it out for Caviezel who is very understated but excellent in this well-acted film. I think he's our next Gary Cooper. Or maybe Jimmy Stewart (as anyone could tell who's heard him speak). More films like this! Keep up the good work.
