“Never has there been a better time to delve into the story of Maurice Flitcroft, a British crane operator who became known as “Britain’s worst golfer.” And never has there been a better time to honour him onscreen.” – Anne T. Donahue, Globe and Mail

 

THE PHANTOM OF THE OPEN tells the heartwarming true story of Maurice Flitcroft (Mark Rylance), a dreamer and unrelenting optimist. This humble crane operator from Barrow-in-Furness managed to gain entry to The British Open Golf Championship qualifying in 1976, despite never playing a round of golf before. He shot the worst round in Open history and drew the ire of the golfing elite, but became a folk hero in the process and, more importantly, showed his family the importance of pursuing your dreams.


These are in-person screenings at Galaxy Cinemas located in the south end of Barrie at 72 Commerce Park Drive. We encourage you to purchase your tickets online in advance. All screenings are reserved seating.

SEATING CHART COLOURS: bright yellow – empty seats; orange seats are sold.
