You wouldn't think a movie that uses the game of golf as a metaphor for class struggle could be so entertaining. Shia LaBoeuf as Francis Ouimet, a golfer who in 1913, rose from caddy to U.S. Open champion at the age of 20 - despite the resistance of the powers that be, who thought it unseemly for a lower-class plebian to play the sport of gentlemen. Ouimet's main competitor is Harry Vardon, a British professional still considered one of the greatest players of all time. The two go head to head in a genuinely gripping match, deftly balanced against their own personal struggles. BONUS FEATURES: Includes compelling stories about the real people portrayed on screen.
