This month on Turner Classic Movies they are showing Bruce Brown's classic surf films every Sunday night. Last night I watched (and taped) The Endless Summer (1966) and Slippery When Wet (1958). I had seen Endless Summer, which shows some tikis towards the end of the movie, before but I had never seen Slippery When Wet. It had a great soundtrack by the Bud Shank quartet and it was filled with cornball humor and great surfing in Oahu.

The schedule and info is here:
