   Rather odd Ben Hogan biopic is a curiously contracted affair. Episodic in the extreme and boasting repressed thespian renderings from Glenn Ford (Hogan), Ann Baxter (Valerie Ford) and Dennis O'Keefe (Chuck Williams), it resembles a feature length episode of "Leave It To Beaver" and is deathly afraid of tarnishing (or humanizing)the Hogan legend.

   This film is such a gem—a sports-focused biopic about Ben Hogan, one of the truly great golfers. It gets a lot of the information accurate even while playing up the melodrama.

   Was 'follow the Sun' based on a true story?

   • Yet that part of the Hogan story was never really developed in Follow the Sun. But the comeback he had after that near fatal automobile accident in 1949 is the stuff legends are made from. That part of the film is absolutely true and it was in fact the reason the film was made at all.

   Why did Ben Hogan make follow the Sun?

   • There's less excuse for Follow the Sun because it was made by a major studio, 20th Century Fox. Ben Hogan did come from poverty, he earned money as a kid as a golf caddy and learned the game and learned it could be a way out of the dire financial straits his family was in.
