The Director's Cut


Now let's stop to think here for a moment. What is the current state of surfing cinema? Should there be a current state? Does it matter? Do surf films add anything to the cultural material or rather are they simply pseudo-artistic reactions to pre-defined formulas to which spice is aspired via winky pop references inevitably couched in a constrained subject matter? Can this same lambast be placed against most films or even most artistic endeavors? Maybe we should not stop to think. Perhaps we ought to just enjoy.
