First, I should say that I take no stock in golf. To tell you the truth, I consider it a game for rich snobs. And I don't think that "Tin Cup" is any kind of great movie (I have little if any respect for Kevin Costner). But this movie elicits a certain charm, with Costner as a down-and-out golfer balancing his life between a relationship and his game. I didn't derive that the movie really offered anything new to the cinematic landscape, but if nothing else, Cheech Marin's performance carries the movie.

So, maybe this is little more than a way to pass time, but it's enjoyable for what it is. Also starring Rene Russo and Don Johnson.

My favorite golf movie is "Caddyshack". And Robin Williams had a hilarious stand-up comment speculating on the sport's origins.
