I recently saw Devon Gearhart in the terribly boring, mediocre film Bobby Jones: Stroke of Genius. Devon is unfortunately only in the first 10 or 15 minutes of the film. After that, there are a few scenes while his character is 14 year old (played by Bubba Lewis), then it moves to the adult character for the rest of the film (played by Jesus Christ himself, Jim Cazaviel, one of the most sleep-inducing actors ever).

I can't really recommend the movie to anyone, but if it plays on TV or you've seen every other movie at the videostore, it's probably worth a look just to see Devon's performance. He's absolutely adorable in it.

Let's hope we see more of him soon. He's played in a few projects already since Bobby Jones:

Warm Springs (2005) (TV) .... Young Elliott Roosevelt
Little Men (2005) .... Jake
The Brooke Ellison Story (2004) (TV) .... Young Reed Ellison

They don't look like major parts. Maybe Little Men will be worth checking out. I don't know.

Here's a picture, stolen from IMDb:

By the way...

If anybody rents this Bobby Jones movie, make sure to watch the deleted scene. There are about four and they ALL feature Devon. They say the scenes were cut in order to quicken the pace a little in the first part of the film.

There's also a very funny bit in the "making of" featurette, where Devon is interviewed and talks about similarities with his character. There's also some footage that shows the director was letting him call "action" on the set and doing the "clapper" thing before the takes. He looks like he's really having fun.

I still think the movie's crap, but Devon looks like a great kid.

Thanks for linking to that other thread. I knew that movie had been mentioned here before. There are some nice pictures there.

He is in Warm Springs a lot LESS than in Bobby Jones.  I watched that to see if I could see him or Matt O'Leary and none of them were in it ebough to warrant the time I wasted with it.  There's 2 hours of my life I will never get back.
