How to Break 90 #2: Position and Back Swing (1933)
*** (out of 4)
A husband (Guy Kibbee) returns home in a foul mood and takes it out on his wife (Glenda Farrell). It turns out the husband had a horrid day at the golf course but the wife turns on their TV and Bobby Jones is there to teach him the proper positions and how to do a correct back swing. HOW TO BREAK 90 #2 features enough entertaining moments to make it worth viewing even to those like myself who have very little interest in playing golf. I think the film works well because film buffs can enjoy the two stars and golf fans can enjoy seeing a legend explaining how he does things. Sure, it's hard to believe Kibbee and Farrell would be married but I've gone through plenty of the actor's films and he always seemed to get the hot ones. His little tantrum was actually pretty funny and seeing him throw his clubs into the fire was well worth sitting through the film. The information by Jones will be enjoyed by his fans or those who simply want to hear from the legend. Of course, the biggest reason to sit through this is just getting to see the incredibly silly looking TV.
