The Endless Summer Revisited : 3 of 5

This is a documentary of Bruce Brown and his filmmaking created by his son, focusing mainly on the making of the original Endless Summer and the sequel (which isn't available on DVD - how rude!). It was really interesting to hear some of the "secrets" of Endless Summer - how some of the "comedy" scenes were later shot in Bruce's backyard, and how they self-distributed the film until the studios saw what a gem it was. It was also cool to see some of the "stars" today - all making surfboards or somehow involved in the sport still. Now, if I could just see Endless Summer 2!
