2. Morning of the Earth (1971)
On the first day, Uluwatu was two feet high. Falzon came back the next day with his ragtag crew and surfed, without legropes, eight to ten foot swells all day long. The Balinese, who had never seen surfing before, apparently watched in awe from the cliffs.
But the Uluwatu sequence was just one part of an extraordinary movie that documented the experimental, hippie-inspired era that surfing went through in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The best example was footage of Chris Brock at Angourie in New South Wales, who, in between surfs, lived in a tree house in the bush.
Highlight: The opening sequence of a golden backlit wave breaking in slow motion, with the title track playing in support. Perhaps the most famous opening of any surf movie.
2、《陸地的早晨》(Morning of the Earth),1971年
如果沒有噴氣式滑水車、衛星影像和涌浪預報的幫助,現在有多少沖浪題材的電影敢說自己發現了一個完美的浪濤。
這部電影描述了沖浪者與自然和諧相處,它們游走澳大利亞東北部海岸、巴厘島和夏威夷以找尋完美的海浪。
最佳場景:開場時沖浪者從金色背景的海浪中以慢動作沖進觀眾的視野,鏡頭逐步推進。也許這是所有沖浪題材電影中最有名的開頭。
