“Tommy’s Honour” and the Game of Golf
By Skip Sheffield
Like golf?
If you do you may like “Tommy’s Honour,” set in the
birthplace of golf, Scotland, in the 19th century.
There are two Tommys in this historical film by Jason
Connery: Tom senior (Peter Mullan) and Tommy junior (Jack Lowden).
Tom Morris was one of the originators of golf, but he was
reduced to being a greens keeper for the rich men who kept the game going.
Tommy junior was a golf prodigy; a natural. As a boy Tommy
was proving his prowess on the golf course enough to attract the attention of
Alexander Boothby (Sam Neill), the wealthy, snooty, head of the golf
association. Tommy gained national attention when he won the Scottish Open of
1868 with a hole-in-one, no less. Tommy is offered a position as a
professional, but his dad thinks he is getting uppity, drinking too much and
hanging out with shallow society types.
“Tommy’s Honour” covers his meteoric rise to legendary
figure in the game of golf, first winning the Caddies’ Open and then the British
Open in 1875. In the process he won the hand of a fair lass, Meg Drinnen
(Ophelia Lovibond) who would become his wife at age 23. Tommy's triumph was not without its hardships and a short-lived tragic ending. Tom senior lived on and
designed 70 golf courses. Both men have become a part of Scottish folklore that
happens to be true. This is their story.
