Big Wednesday celebrates surfing as much as the most dedicated kid who ever waxed a board. And its more: a fascinating 1962-1974 chronicle of friendships and lifestyles in transition. John Milius (Apocalypse Now, Red Dawn) directs and co-scripts, investing Big Wednesday with his own passion for the ultimate ride and a truthful feel for those turbulent times. Stars Jan-Micheal Vincent and William Katt are accomplished surfers; co-lead Gary Busey (Point Break) learned for the role. And the sensational cinematography drops you inside some awesome barrels. Worth seeing again and again.Running time - 115 minutes - thats only 5 minutes short of two hours of sensational entertainment.
