Movie being filmed in Utopia Texas & the Utopia Golf Course - ‘Seven Days in Utopia’.
Robert Duvall is Johnny and Lucas Black is playing Luke (the young golfer)
Based on the book – ‘Golf's Sacred Journey, 7 Days at the Links of Utopia’ is really a book about life; it just so happens that the main character's life is all about golf.
A professional golfer, who is actually never named in the book, has a breakdown on the golf course during a tournament in which he was favored to do well.
Despondent and despairing of his future in golf, he wanders into the town of Utopia, where he providentially meets Johnny, a former golf pro who has retired to a quite country life. Johnny, a Yoda-like teacher, who is building a golf course in a field in the middle of nowhere; takes the young golfer under his wing and spends a week completely reshaping the way he thinks about the game of golf and life.
