鲍比・琼斯：天才一击

是做amateur还是做professional？一切只为了爱。资料上说，他不打比赛之后做了律师、军官，演电影、写专栏，搞发明，办工厂.....由于脊髓空洞症，这个沉默的英俊男人后半生在轮椅上度过。【其实剧本导演都平平，不过不失而已，但JC实在美得金灿灿的，加多一粒星

amateur的字源，来自于拉丁文的Amor（爱）。他是因为爱高尔夫而打球的，如果成为职业选手，就是为了钱，而不是为了爱了。
——豆瓣影评：曾孜荣

牛逼的人生不需要解释……高尔夫界至今无人超越的成就，毕业于哈佛，拥有机械工程专业和英国文学、法律三个学位，仅仅28岁就宣布退役，这是怎样的人生啊……电影一般，但了解这样一位天才也是足够了。

Wait, the Marines guarded the U.S. Amateur? It's funny that I was texting Jak while watching this. Bobby Jones, are you perfect, perfect, or perfect? There's only one Bobby Jones. You don't get gentle... Wait, the Marines guarded the U.S. Amateur? It's funny that I was texting Jak while watching this. Bobby Jones, are you perfect, perfect, or perfect? There's only one Bobby Jones. You don't get gentlemen like him anymore.

"I'm an amateur, Mr. Mullen. Do you know what the origin of that word is? It's from the Latin root, to love. To be an amateur is to love the game." 高尔夫球这题材确实太难拍了，这部的问题主要在于节奏拖沓，摄影的美感也不够。而迄今我看过的最好的同题材电影... "I'm an amateur, Mr. Mullen. Do you know what the origin of that word is?
