The Legend Of Bagger Vance (2000)

The Legend of Bagger Vance is Robert Redford's 2000 golf drama set in Depression-era Georgia, following a shattered war veteran who rediscovers his swing with help from a mysterious caddie. Charlize Theron plays the Southern belle romantic lead, bringing a warmth and physicality that stands out against the film's otherwise reverent tone. The period setting keeps things restrained, but her presence still delivers across the 2 scenes collected here, including glimpses that reveal more than the era's manners would suggest. Fans building out her early filmography shouldn't skip this stop.
