This is a fascinating collection of films that span several decades. Of course, this is a must-see for anyone interested in surfing. However, it also has value to people who might never set foot on a board.

Endless Summer I was filmed in the early 60s, when most of the world was unaware of surfing. Two young surfers set out on a bold journey around the world to find new places to surf. Much of the entertainment in this film comes from the different cultures and characters they meet around the world. One of my favorites was an intriguing experience with an African village. This film is considered a classic documentary in the surfing world, and it probably had a lot to do with the spread of surfing around the world.

Endless Summer II was filmed almost 30 years after the first one, but it was filmed by the same man and includes one of the original surfers from the first film. Modern advances in surfing and filming are quite evident after watching the two films together. ESII has some dramatic surfing video, including remarkable footage from some of today's most famous surfers. Two new young surfers follow a similar path to ESI, including visits to some of the same places along with new places (e.g., Costa Rica). As with ESI, the film is as much about the characters and cultures as the surfing.

The third part of The Endless Summer Collection is a nice follow-up to the first two documentaries. You get a lot of behind the scenes stories about the films and how they came to be. If you enjoyed the Endless Summer films, you will be interested to see what has happened to some of the characters and to learn more about the story behind the films.

I don't know how you can watch this collection without wanting to go out to the beach and get on a board!

The Endless Summer Collection is great. Being a surfer for 20 yrs. There are few movies/documentries out there that capture the pure eurphoric state of mind surfing gives and Bruce Brown hit the bulls eye with Endless Summer and Endless Summer 2. Iv had the pleasure meeting Robert August and "Wingnut" who both are featured in the collection. Now if only i could get the Astrodeck guys to put the Wave Worrior series on DVD i would have my ultimate collection.

The Filming of the Endless Summer ***-
Classics you cannot miss . . .2004-06-015 / 5
These films are like the 80's movies that made everything that mattered happen. Ferris, Goonies, Breakfast Club, etc . . . except they are surfing classics, epic documentaries if you will.

**Bruce Brown has the classic surfer aesthetic, and narrates each film poignantly and humorously.

Endless Summer 1 is the classic older film, paced a little more slowly and fun-lovingly. It sets a great preface to Endless 2, an incredible multi-hemisphere journey.

Both films have excellent cinematography as well as dialogue and interplay between characters. Endless 2 is as goofily trivial as it is deep, as beautiful as it is mundane. . .

There are gorgeous scenery shots that do Cape Town, Indonesia, Figi, (my fav) and Alaska, justice as incredible places not only to surf, but also to just be.

Our two fascinating and yin and yang protagonists, 1, a Pat O'Connell gives suffusively satisfying short board licks, and 2, a. wing-nut supplies all of the long board smoothness to coalesce.

Five stars, in my to 25 of all time. A truly beautiful film made by those who love life.
