actually that has already been decided.

watched blue wednesday again last night. still stunning. How did Jan-Michael Vincent never do anything good again?

The avoiding the draft bit is a great bit of era defining cinematography

FFS, I had just watched it as well

I was possibly thinking of other surf movies I rated and the only one I could think of was the british 'blue juice' which wasn't great, just OK

Isn't The Endless Summer supposed to be the sine qua non upon which all other surf movies are based? Or do docs not count?

I quite enjoyed North Shore when I first watched it as a kid, but I'm not sure how good it actually is. It's very formulaic.

Yeah, Point Break.

Bank robbing surfers.

I enjoyed that, especially the ending.

Crystal Voyager.

Actually, that's probably the only surf movie I've ever seen, but didn't it, er, push the envelope (or whatever that ridiculous phrase is) for being the first to film inside the tube, or something?

Morning of the Earth looks really good Clive, I'm going to check it out this week.

I don't know which is the best surf movie, but i know what its soundtrack must be:

It's off this compilation:



I dug it up, and it's the soundtrack to a 16mm Australian surf movie from 1968, apparently it's right up there with the soundtrack above:
