  • MacGillivray Freeman Films will present a digitally remastered 50th Anniversary Special Edition of Five Summer Stories in August 2022 in 100-plus independent theaters nationwide. The film has been newly edited and features a new digital soundtrack. Greg MacGillivray says it’s the best version yet!
    "Five Summer Stories" first premiered in 1972 at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium and was quickly deemed “the greatest surf film ever made.” The film’s unusual format-a montage of stories or vignettes-perfectly captured a fractured era in which an explosion of creativity and revolutionary change was shaking down the old order, taking the sport of surfing off into new and unknown territory. Although the film went through several (and increasingly popular) incarnations as it played in theaters over a 7-year span from 1972 to 1979, its fundamental story remained the same-that the pure, innocent joy of surfing was symbolic of humankind’s best possibilities on Earth without war or politics or environmental destruction.
    Features the music of the Beach Boys and Honk.

      I wonder if we bumped into each other. Remember when the lights dimmed, the silence while watching the lead on the film spool up, then the mayhem when that opening tube swallowed up the entire theatre?

    Will it hit the screens here in Australia? And will it be available on DVD or Blu Ray? Love the film, love the music.

    In 1972 I was a skinny 10 year old haole living on a sugar plantation of the Big Island. I saw 5 Summer Stories at the Palace Theater in Hilo. It shaped my life.

      @@pikiwiki, ah yes, I rode the school bus every day to Hilo from about 1965-1975. The bus started in Honoka'a. Kids from Kukuihaele (where my cousins lived) to Honoka'a were the first on the bus. Then it would stop all the way down the Hamakua coast picking up kids at almost every town. Then the cycle would reverse in the afternoon. (My poor cousins had a long day!) So we knew families along the entire coast. Let me tell you, it was a trip being a haole kid with no brothers in a little plantation town 55 years ago. I LOVED living in Hawaii ... but I have to laugh when modern snowflakes whine about "microaggressions."

    Pretty much every clip from 5SS is of Gerry Lopez at Pipe. That's great but I never come across the "Love You Baby" ( Made My Statement) clip of BK... It's the best segment of the film...

    The movie was great and represented where a lot of white aryan surfers were at that time, which I was one of them. The poster is the epitome of blonde blue eyed white aryan surfers who owned the coast of southern Ca back in those days. I look back at those times with a sense of embarrassment. Malibu back in the 60's and 70's and all of the California coast were anti people of color and anti semitic. The term surf nazi's was not just a quaint term for surfers back then. I know I will get a lot of shit for saying this. The 1960's Gidget was based on a Jewish woman who lived in Malibu but had burning crosses on her front yard by anti semites who were surfers in the area. This is just real CA surfing history. And that history is racism based on white ownership of the California coast.

      I won't give you any shit over your experience. I lived on the point and surfed County (also worked at Grandmas' Grease Pit) but I never saw what you described. I thought "Nazi" was just a fun joke of a name for us dedicated to the hard-core army of surfers. We were all blond from the sun and lurked around in an horde of likeminded surf maniacs that didn't give a shit what race you were if you were out there. Sad your experience was ladened with so much malice and disdain- I guess ignorance was bliss when Buttons, Aipa, and Lopez were our heroes and inspirations (hardly Aryan). Hang tough friend- hope to see you out there someday.

      @@ebutuoyssa I was looking back in time after reading articles about the Anti-Semitism and racism that was part of the early surfers of the early 1960's. I was totally unaware of it at the time but there are insightful readings about that time and some surfers and the Arian attitudes and appreciation of Nazi's. This does not represent all surfers or even most surfers of that time. The ideal surfer in the 60's though was blonde blue eyed of which I happened to have blonde hair and blue eyes so I fit right in. Things in the late 60's and early 1970's were changing. It also mattered which beach you went to. Also Buttons, Aipa, Buttons and Lopez came a little later and they came from Hawaii not the Southern California Coast where there were very few people of color that lived on the coast or had access to the coast
      . But like I sai there are great historic articles on this subject revealing attitudes in Malibu, Santa Barbara, LaJolla, Palos Verdes. But I am 71 now, I still have my board but haven's surfed for years, just memories of past days.

      @@richardbates1 Nice to hear from you. I don't know where or why such insanity may have polluted a sport (a religion for me) that began in a completely non-white culture. I do remember territorial animosity (Silver Strand was a prime example), and quite a bit of racism from the Hawaiin surfers that I encountered during the Sunkist Malibu Surf Championships (I have a pic of Buttons standing on the hood my '72 Chevy Blazer), but they seemed to have good reason with the Anglo invasion wandering into their turf- just as I did when rude gremmies cut me off in my spots. I never equated it with race-just ignorance and shitty upbringing. I saw more problems with the way the female surfers were being ostracized and pushed out of the best waves. I often welcomed them to drop in with me (even after one lost her stick and broke my jaw) as long as they stayed lower and didn't jack my wave up. Hopefully- someday I'll run into you and we can reminisce over the good stuff that we still dream about to this day. Great to hear from you, Brother. Stay safe and keep that stick waxed up-ya just never know...
