120 minute feature film DVD starring Will Smith, Charlize Theron and Matt Damon. A tale of a local hero with a promising future, whose hopes are shattered on the battlefields of war. Disillusioned and angry, the young man turns his back on the world...until a fateful visit from a stranger turns his life around. THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE, based on the book of the same title by Steve Pressfield, uses golf as the basis for this spiritual tale of friendship, self-discovery, and faith. His incredible prowess at the game of golf makes young Rannulph Junuh (Matt Damon) the pride of Savannah, Georgia in 1916. When Junuh enlists and is sent overseas to fight in World War I, the reality of war proves too much for him. Rather than return to Savannah a broken man, he simply disappears, much to the dismay of his girlfriend, feisty socialite Adele Invergordon (Charlize Theron). When Junuh finally does return to Savannah in 1931, he is coerced into representing his hometown in a golf tournament against legends Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen. But Junuh has lost his swing, and only begins to find it again with the help of Bagger Vance (Will Smith), a mysterious drifter who appears out of the night and offers his services as a caddy. Ultimately, Vance is a spiritual force, teaching Junuh not only about the game, but also about life in this beautifully filmed work directed by Robert Redford (ORDINARY PEOPLE, THE HORSE WHISPERER). Jack Lemmon narrates and makes a brief appearance in the film. Theatrical release: November 3, 2000
Filmed in Georgia and South Carolina.
Professional Golfers' Association master professional Tim Ross served as the film's technical adviser, and taught novice Damon how to play.
While practicing, Damon swung the club so hard that he separated his ribs.
According to the author of THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE, Steven Pressfield, the character of Bagger Vance and his story are based on the Hindu epic and scriptural poem, the Bhagavad-Gita, in which, Bhagavan is the "Supreme Personality" who teaches his follower, Arjuna, about life.
Jeff Strickler of the Minneapolis Star-Tribune named THE LEGEND OF BAGGER VANCE one of the 10 best films of 2000. Legend Of Bagger Vance Reviews: "...Completely in command of its tone....It is really about finding yourself at peace with the thing you do best..."
-- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Legend Of Bagger Vance Movie Review Average Rating: (4.3 out of 5 stars)   A Passionate Golf Film
This story of the popular Bagger Vance story is told with so much passion and spirit for the game of golf.The actors do an exceptional job of bringing to life the characters,especially Will Smith who gives one of his best and probably most overlooked performance of his career.

Director Gus Van Sant brings to the screen this moving story of a grizzled recluse and an inner-city teenager brought together by their shared passion for writing. Like Van Sant's Oscar-nominated GOOD WILL HUNTING, FINDING FORRESTER earnestly explores the struggles of a youthful genius whose position in society (underprivileged kid from the wrong side of the tracks) makes him seem destined for failure until he forms a relationship with a gifted but introverted mentor who helps him see the light.The youthful genius is a talented urban basketball player named Jamal Wallace (Rob Brown), who in his spare time reads everything he can get his hands on, secretly scribbling prose and poetry into a composition pad. The introverted ...

The second film directed by actor Bill Paxton is a marked departure--in both form and content--from his debut, 2001's FRAILTY, a shadowy, gothic tale of murder. THE GREATEST GAME EVER PLAYED is a sports movie slash Horatio Alger rags-to-riches tale with undertones of class consciousness and social critique. The story is based on a real-life event--the 1913 U.S. Open golf championship--at which two equally sympathetic young men, both of whom grew up economically ...

The silver-screen version of SEX AND THE CITY is sure to inspire lust, though it may not be after its sexy male cast. Instead, Carrie Bradshaw (Sarah Jessica Parker) and her friends wear enviable fashions from the industry's biggest names such as Zac Posen, Louis Vuitton, and, of course, Manolo Blahnik, and their gorgeous clothes--and accessories--threaten to steal the show. But for fans of the series' wit, drama, and sex, there's plenty to like in this romantic comedy filled with familiar characters. Though four years have passed since the events of the series, not much has changed as the film begins: Carrie and Mr. Big (Chris Noth) are happy as they search for an apartment, Charlotte (Kristin Davis) is blissful with her husband (Evan Handler) and adopted daughter, Samantha (Kim Cattrall) is still with actor Smith Jerrod (Jason Lewis), and Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) is trying to balance life as a mother, wife, and lawyer as she lives in Brooklyn with Steve (David Eigenberg). But Carrie and Big's apartment hunt leads them down the road to marriage, and ...
