Surfer Documentary (LINK)
May 12th 2008 14:55
I watched the documentary, SURFWISE, that follows the odyssey of 85-year-old, legendary surfer Dr. Dorian “Doc” Paskowitz, his wife Juliette, and their nine children—all of whom were home-schooled on the beaches of Southern California, Hawaii, Mexico and Israel; they surfed every day of their lives, and were forced to adhere to a strict diet and lifestyle by their passionate and demanding, health-conscious father.
Surfers would love this movie because it’s about the eccentrically lifestyle of a surfer who decides to live the nomad life that most surfers only dream of the possibility.
While watching the movie, I had a hard time keeping track of all his children. Each a true individual of him or herself, but nowhere cognizant of what their father believes. Some of the subject matter brought up is rather childish and uninteresting because there are more important issues in society than what this family went through.
But again, if you are a lover of the surf and dream of a life on the beach, then you’ll enjoy this documentary.
