This, and THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, are my two all-time favorite films. Both of their closing scenes always move me to tears.

"I guess it doesn't matter. As Bagger once said, it's a game that can't be won, only played, and so I play. I play on. I play for the moments yet to come, looking for my place in the field." - Old Hardy (and the final words ever uttered by Jack Lemmon on screen.)

As a child growing up in Brooklyn, my Dad would come home from work Saturday afternoons and watch golf. I used to hate that and vowed I'd never watch it when I grew up. Alot of years later, nursing a bad back on a Saturday afternoon, laying on a love seat, I found myself watching golf. I realized I am my Fathers son. He's been gone awhile now, Isure wish I had a chance to watch it with him again. I Love you Dad !! Thanks for the post.

Paul Maguire Agreed Paul. My dads been been gone since 2004. While we watched a lot of golf together, we also played a lot of golf together. I sure miss those times. The world seemed in perfect balance when we were out playing.

That's an awesome story and I saw your name. Thank You fellow brother for your service as a Marine, my dad was a marine as well in Vietnam and I'm 3rd Generation Veteran. My dad has been so tough on me growing up that basic training at Ft Knox was a vacation. My dad's still around but he's almost 80 now. I'm a Professional Golfer now and have been for 27 years and I cherish these memories. Every Saturday we'd wake up at 4 am to be the first off at all the courses we played. Best memories of my life.

For those of you who don't know, the trumpet solo was performed by Andrew Crowley. With Ms Portmans orchestra I assume. But a beautiful work. One of the best. His range gives me chills and brings a tear to my eye.

Amen Paul M. I often wish for the same opportunity with my dad. Growing up we disagreed about a number of things. But for baseball and golf we were akined deeply. I loved playing with my dad. Every time I hear the trumpet solo of Andrew Crowley and this entire part of the soundtrack I tear up and think of my dad. I grew up playing trumpet and tuba and I know simething of how difficult this solo was to play. The seemless range of music without tounging the notes and having it flow into one smooth line is wonderful

Paul Maguire, you're so right. I was twelve when my dad put the first golf club in my hand. A five iron. I used that five iron from tee to green and even as a putter because my dad played lefty and I was right handed. It also made it easy to carry my clubs since I had only one. But I used that 5 iron for 3 years until I was 15 and got a set of Wilsons. One and three woods, 3,5,7,9 irons and putter. Thought I had died and gone to heaven and could lick Arnold Palmer. What a feeling. But I will have to say in a pinch, that five iron was my most accurate, steady and at time long hitting club in the bag. My drives with the 1-wood had a slice or fade to it, but the five iron could be counted upon to bring me home straight and true every time. I had grown up a big boy and could put an average 5 iron shot out to 275 yards consistently. And had much more control on direction as well. What a time. Sure miss those times with he and my mom.

Have seen the movie several times and love it each time. But I never see Jack Lemmon in the credits. Wonder if that was by choice or omission. I think this was his last. Great man. I researched this and discovered that Jacks part was considered a cameo part and that it was his choice to have it put in or to leave it out. I think it was his last movie he was involved with. If so, he couldn't have picked a better one to go out on. RIP Jack Lemmon.

As a trumpet player I wonder who played this with the soundtrack orchestra. Aside from that the movie and the music are so soul shatteringly good. This one of those films where the cinematography, direction, acting, editing and music are pure perfection. I worked for four years in a drug and alcohol treatment center with adolescents. Being in recovery myself I wasn't surprised that this was one of the favorite moves of the young people. Most of whom never played one round of golf.

I was flipping through the channels on a Sunday morning not too long ago and came upon The Legend of Bagger Vance. The hauntingly, sad music was immediately recognizable as composed by Rachel Portman, one of my favorite composers of "best original scores." I'll have to add this soundtrack to the others ("The Cider House Rules" and "Emma").

the movie does have religious imagery but not a christian one: The plot is roughly based on the Hindu sacred text the Bhagavad Gita, where the Warrior/Hero Arjuna (R. Junuh) refuses to fight. The god Krishna appears as Bhagavan (Bagger Vance) to help him to follow his path as the warrior and hero that he was meant to be. This relationship was fully explained by Steven J. Rosen in his book Gita on the Green, for which Steven Pressfield wrote the foreword.

kaindrg I know it's been half a decade, but I thank you for this information. I always thought that Runnolph Junah was a damned odd name for a character. Given Pressfield's predilections, I am a bit ashamed to admit that it never occurred to me to question why.
