just got home from a hard day excavating...
and have been needing to share this one with you since lunchtime...

big wednesday

surfing film that's about so much more.
group of friends over a period of maybe 10 or 15 years in california, before during and after vietnam war.

it's got jan michael vincent (who went on to appear in airwolf and then disappear) and a bunch of other folk you'd recognise.

i'm not saying it's a bunch of laughs, cos it's not. in fact it sometimes makes me cry.

you see the group go off in all sorts of directions in their lives but they have a common ground in surfing. it all builds up to "big wednesday" and i have goosebumps now from typing this!

quite an epic film!
