Mark Rylance strikes again! The best actor working today stars as real-life dock worker Maurice Flitcroft, who, despite never swinging a golf club in his life, decided one day to just go play in the British Open. Hilarity ensues. Scripted by ‘Paddington 2’ writer Simon Farnaby (there’s your first hint right there), it’s a charming, wonderful, and endearing bit of across-the-pond goodness.
4/5 stars
