Great movie!!! I would reccomend it to any one who likes these actors. They all did outstanding performances. Very well done. If you enjoyed Tin Cup you might also enjoy this golf movie.

This is one of my favorite movies. My eBay experience was excellent. The only issue is I bought the movie twice because the first time I unknowingly received one from the UK which is not playable in the U.S. I had no prior knowledge. Just a warning to those purchasing movies on line. Besides that, the movie is great and eBay was great

This is a story of hardship, devastation, and redemption. Junuh (Mat Damon), was perhaps the finest young golfer of his day. He won the state championship and by all opinions was sure to be one of the best pro golfers ever to come along. When WWI came along, it was just natural for him to join up, and being placed in charge of his group, they all went off to war together. By an unfortunate event, all of his men are killed, except him. He is awarded a Medal of Honor, but is haunted by the fact that he lived. Nobody ever said it, but he imagined that everybody somehow always blamed him for living, and for everybody else dying. After the war, he never went back to golf. Junuh's girlfriend when he was in college, was the daughter of probably the richest man in town, Charlize Theron. They were in love and everyone expected them to marry and just live the storybook life. Junuh wasn't right in the head for quite a while after the war, and didn't return for several years. When he did, he lived pretty much like a hermit until the Great Depression hit and everybody went broke. His old girlfriend's daddy had spent everything he had to build a premiere golf course and resort complex. Facing a loss of everything, he killed himself. Now his daughter is being squeezed by the creditors to sell for just cents on the dollar. As a last ditch effort to gain publicity and excite the golfing public from around the country, she proposes a $10,000, "Winner take all" tournament between Bobby Jones, and Walter Hagan, the two best golfers in the country. The City Council wants a local golfer to also participate, but there isn't one. A small child who is a golf fan suggests Junuh. Everybody agrees and they try to do whatever they can to entice him. He says NO! His old girlfriend visits him and eventually gets him to compete. But there is a problem. . .He hasn't played in more than ten years, and he has lost his swing. While trying to hit a few balls in the dark, a mysterious black man appears. He apparently is just passing thru and Junuh offers him some food. While watching Junuh, he tells him that "it looks like you lost your swing". Jujuh is stunned, but listens to him. His name is Bagger Vance (Will Smith). Together, Junuh overcomes his past demons and goes on to compete. Thru all sorts of problems, Junuh keeps on fighting back. Once ten strokes back, he keeps on fighting, and eventually regains his control until the event ends in a three-way tie. The Bagger Vance character is a virtually "supernatural" force not only teaching Junuh about golf, but of the spiritual redemption of self-forgiveness and moving ahead with ones life. Really beautiful movie.
