went on the 14th in newcastle great movie would recommend you dont miss it.Surf movie are awesome on the big screen
If you heavily relate to that era its a definite ‘must see’.
But hardly worth a second view or buying the DVD.
Perhaps a tad light in relevant surfing footage.
Hey Chip
Saw B.D.T.D at the Aussie premiere at Noosa last March, great movie and a special night with Bugs , MR , Shaun and PT on hand to chat.
From my perspective that era was the beginning of pro surfing and in some ways the beginning of the end, if we only knew then what we know now would we have been so stoked that surfing was getting the recognition we thought it deserved ? Personally I think it lost a lot of it’s essence becoming a mainstream ‘sport’ but there is still a lot to enjoy. The story is well told with honesty from both sides.
The waves were /are awesome.

cant recall if they were in it. But there were ‘Hawaiians’
played by white actors with makeup…so that must count.
Shaun Thompson’s best acting since ‘In Gods Hands’.
