The Phantom of the Open

The Phantom of the Open
One of those great British charmers in the tradition of The Full Monty and Made in Dagenham. A funny and heart-warming true story of an everyman dreamer. Maurice Flitcroft (Mark Rylance, Bridge Of Spies), a crane operator and optimistic dreamer from Barrow-in-Furness, managed to gain entry to the 1976 British Open qualifying, despite never playing a round of golf before. With pluckiness and unwavering self-belief, Maurice pulls off a stunning attempt. Also starring Sally Hawkins (Paddington) as Maurice’s wife Jean and Rhys Ifans (Notting Hill) this is an uplifting and moving comedy-drama about pursuing your dreams and shooting for the stars, no matter what hand you’re dealt.
