| Description: | THE LAST IRONIC SALUTE - Ashes of 78 year-old Mr TF Hallburton spread beneath a beech tree at the 18th hole that always spoiled his game. Surbiton, Surrey. L/S of large tree in picturesque countryside. LS man comes walking along carrying container; he walks up to 2 other men standing under the large beech tree; one of them seems to be giving him instructions. The man steps back a way and flings the ashes (unfortunately into the wind, which blows them back at him). Pan left to a few mourners who stand solemnly watching. (It is not obvious in the film that it is a golf course, but the opening title makes that clear.) | |
