Join us for a special test screening of MacGillivray Freeman's Hollywood Don't Surf followed by a panel discussion.
Hollywood Don't Surf
Hollywood Don't Surf is a lively, comedic journey through more than 50 years of surfing on the big screen—and Hollywood’s often outrageous attempts to capture surf culture authentically. Co-directed by two-time Academy Award nominee Greg MacGillivray and Emmy-winning director Sam George, the film asks the enduring question: Will Hollywood ever get surfing right?
Â
Featuring Quentin Tarantino, Steven Spielberg, John Milius, Stacy Peralta, Gary Busey, Gerry Lopez, Laird Hamilton, Frankie Avalon, Garrett McNamara and many more, the film traces surfing’s cinematic evolution from the kitschy beach movies of the 1960s to the cult classic Big Wednesday and today’s spectacular big-wave films. Entertaining, irreverent and packed with remarkable surf footage, Hollywood Don't Surf  is both a celebration of surfing in the movies and an insider’s look at what Hollywood gets right—and hilariously wrong—about the sport and culture.
