Tommy's Honour

About this movie

A father wants only the best for his son, but struggles to guide him in a world that’s changing as fast as the boy himself. A son blessed with talent and fuelled by ambition, chafes at his father’s commands as he hurtles toward adulthood with all the excitement and adventure of untarnished youth. In every generation, a torch passes from father to son. Set in St. Andrews, Scotland during the Victorian era, the story opens in 1866 as 15-year-old Tommy Morris (Jack Lowden) heads to the links with his father, Tom Morris (Peter Mullan) who is already a legend who has secured his place in the history of the ancient game. But Tommy will soon outshine him, retiring the Open’s prize Championship Belt while still in his teens (by winning it three times in a row), and, as the “dashing young man of golf,” drawing flocks of spectators to the sport and becoming its first touring pro.
