Prior to 1964, Hollywood along with the mainstream media viewed surfers as rebellious bums. Filmmaker Bruce Brown changed that with The Endless Summer.
The all-time classic portrayed the wave as a kind of Holy Grail and surfers as knights on a quest to explore the world in search of the perfect wave.
The Endless Summer was Bruce’s sixth surf film in a career that started almost accidentally and proceeded according to the guerrilla template of the times — “shoot all winter, edit in the spring, run your ass off all summer showing the damn thing - including doing your own live narration - in school auditoriums and small halls, then pack up for another winter on the road and do it all over again.”
With The Endless Summer, Bruce Brown broke that mold.
