Customer Reviews of Barefoot Adventure
Great DVD This is a great DVD! It was produced in the '60's, but this doesn't take away from the DVD. Great classic longboard surfing through hawaii and california. Narrated by Bruce Brown, who gives a short history of each surfing spot shown and footage of big name surfers in the 1960's. A great movie for anyone, big surf and small surf as well as humerous pass time activities. I suggest you buy a copy!
Old Santa Monica Civic Auditorium
Bruce Brown narrated all his movies, and the Santa Monica Civic was always packed with boys, mostly. This movie was his first to have an actual music score. It still impresses me that the audience was so well-behaved and no dope that I ever noticed. (Marlboros, wheat jeans, Pendleton shirts, and juarachi sandals over white athletic socks was the uniform, or horizontal wide striped T-shirt.) I began surfing at 16, seeing all of BB's surfing movies, and doing the Surfer Stomp to Dick Dale and his Deltones at Balboa. I just had my orig '61 Bud Shank BAREFOOT ADVENTURE album transferred to CD. (My orig Dick Dale album will be on CD soon.) This movie is a classic, just like Jan & Dean, The Beach Boys and KFWB's music of that era with DJ Bill Balance. It was a time of fun and innocence which I wish my grandchildren could experience. JSS3.
charming, great footage, and what a soundtrack!
If you longboard, or are into classic west coast jazz, then this movie is a must.
The featured surfer is Del Cannon, the "Sir Lawrence Olivier" of the surf movie. This movie has it all, great vintage south shore fun, rare point break at Makaha, rare footge of some fabulous surfers of the 60's (what style!). I loved "an early Donald Takayama doing an early wipeout".
Plenty of Bruce Brown shenanigans as well, like when Del Cannon tries to make his own blank. That's as funny as any episode of 'Jackasss'.
A charming view into a simpler day and age.
And the soundtrack!! WOW!! Bud Shank & Co. provide cool west coast jazz that is both sophisticated and appropriate for the film. Like a cool sea breeze, and then like a powerfull ride down the Banzai Pipeline, Shank provides memorable music.
Better then 'Slippery' and 'Hollow Days', and in my opinion, 'Endless'. A true gem! Buy it.
