I was given the name of the great champion, and it's been possible to do what he did. On this movie, we are given a glimpse of his growing up - the surroundings where he lived, and this is excellent. I question some of the details might have been written to be more spiced-up; and my only negative what that we aren't any footage of the actual golf swing. I understand - it's a little bit like the Grand Slam - no one has been able to completely has a handle on that swing. It was a thing apart. I grew up with Arnold Palmer on TV, making 80-footers making the spectators going wild; hence Arnold's Army - they could expect him to do some spectacular feats. It comes home that Jones did this too. Also loved the shots of some of those bunkers in Andrews. My wife doesn't play golf, but she really ...

But now, my quest is to find some B. Jones footage - I've seen a little - somehow I'll find some for my archive.

Acatchy title since it is about gold.
The morals are good. I really bought it because of Alistair Begg, who is my favorite preacher. He wasn't a prominent actor in the film. I am sure many of us who know him through his wonderful messages were surprised that he used the word ''hell'' twice in his few speeches. But that's o.k. Alistair's favorite film is Chariots of Fire, and this film is much like it: a true story with good principles.The morals are good.

Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius (DVD, 2004)
This was an excellent movie about the life and times of Bobby Jones, the only golfer to win all four golf Majors in the same year. He was absolutely the finest golfer of his time. Bobby Jones grew up as a rich kid on a golf course. Both his father and grandfather were very successful businessmen, and all of the advantages were his for the taking. He was taken with the game of golf at a very early age, and with the advantages of a golfing instructor, a natural swing, and a dedication unmatched by anyone else, he truly was the best. This was an enjoyable movie about his lifelong struggles with chronic pain. Jones never turned pro, opting to stay an amateur all of his life.

A birdie, yes, but not an eagle...
Stroke of Genius is a well-acted, warts-and-all, biographic film about golfing great, Bobby Jones. If you are a fan of Jim Caviezel, Claire Forlani and/or Jeremy Northam, you'll probably enjoy this film because all three play their parts beautifully. This man-against-himself story smacks of verisimilitude, whereas the "Bagger Vance" charicature of Bobby Jones was pleasant enough but unconvincing. While I can find little to fault in this production, I only rate it as "good" because it is slow to the point of tedious in places. Nevertheless, I highly recommend it on the quality of the acting and the overall portrayal.Stroke of Genius is a well-acted, warts-and-all, biographic film about golfing great, Bobby Jones.

Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius
Designer of the Augusta National Golf Club where the Masters Tournament is played, Bobby Jones is a golf legend, portrayed in this biopic by Jim Caviezel (THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST). The film shows the tremendous achievements for which Jones will be forever remembered, while also realistically conveying the challenges he faced, and the great golfers who mentored him along the way. Sweeping photography adds breathtaking appeal to the chronological story of Jones' life. Growing up in Atlanta, Georgia, where he was born in 1902, he suffered from a stomach illness that made him unable to join other boys in playing baseball. Instead, he followed his father's games of golf and practiced by himself. By age 14, he was competing in national competitions, and was recognized as a fine ... Designer of the Augusta National Golf Club where the Masters Tournament is played, Bobby Jones is a golf legend, portrayed in this biopic by Jim Caviezel (THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST). The film shows the tremendous achievements for which Jones will be forever remembered, while also realistically conveying the challenges he faced, and the great golfers who mentored him along the way. Sweeping photography adds breathtaking appeal to the chronological story of Jones' life. Growing up in Atlanta, Georgia, where he was born in 1902, he suffered from a stomach illness that made him unable to join other boys in playing baseball. Instead, he followed his father's games of golf and practiced by himself. By age 14, he was competing in national competitions, and was recognized as a fine golfer with perfect form and a remarkable stroke. Atlanta Journal writer O.B. Keeler (Malcolm McDowell) predicted that Jones would become one of the greatest golfers of all time, and, through years of close friendship, he saw that become a reality. Not only was Jones the winner of the Grand Slam--a combination of four tournaments that consisted of the U.S. Amateur, the U.S. Open, the British Amateur, and the British Open--he brought a high level of integrity to the game. His admirable golf career was not the limit of his success, however. He also earned degrees in engineering, English literature, and law--and opened a private law practice after he retired from professional golf in 1930. A delightful film that benefits from strong performances, including those of supporting actors Claire Forlani and Jeremy Northam, BOBBY JONES: STROKE OF GENIUS nicely captures Jones' chapter in the history of golf.
