For decades, scholars have wrestled with the normative paradigms and socio-looper implications of the movie Caddyshack. Not anymore. Be the Ball, a turf-busting Faber College Doctoral Thesis, explodes the heretofore unknown myths surrounding the top-notch players at Bushwood Country Club. Employing Critical Golf Theory and in many ways out-finessing itself, this Dissertation holistically handicaps Danny Noonan, Ty Webb, Al Czervick, Judge Elihu Smails and Carl Spackler, revealing their Titleistic Role in the most profound - and most quotable - movie in the history of American cinema. Just like Animal House. Be the Ball is not just a signature celebration of pro jocks but a striking talisman of late 20th Century Existentialism, a Smailius-Czervickiam assimilation of the Bushwood Totality into symbolic Individualism. The Whole, as it is, in One. Written by a young, academic Cinderella, this Thesis elevates Caddyshack to the preeminence it should enjoy in the Clubhouse Library of American Masterworks. Which is nice.
