Exactly.

I was reading all the comments, specifically so I could make my own comment about that movie, “The Greatest Game Ever Played” which he directed+.

The “making of” (”extras”) stuff on the DVD/Blue Ray features Bill Paxton a lot, plus historical material since it is based on a true story, and it is good.

“The Greatest Game Ever Played” is an exceptional movie and is one of the best movies he was ever involved in, I think.

All this is notwithstanding “the movies” being an industry filled with weirdos, including the star of the “The Greatest Game Ever Played,” who was less weird back when he made that movie.

Hollywood produces some inspirational stuff despite itself, and we should acknowledge when it does something actually good.

They play it all the time on the Golf Channel. Watched it many times. Really a good story. If you want to know how golf got so popular in America, check it out. RIP Bill Paxton.
