Psyche Out (1962)

The opening moments of Psyche Out introduce a young boy who craves the adventures achieved in the surf The boy or at least his dreams seem like they could provide a recurring framing device for Walt Phillips third film following Sunset Surf Craze and Surf Mania but thats the last we see of the boy or hear of ambitions Psyche Out contains less poetic musing travelogue comic relief or similar stuff characteristic of surf films of the time in favor of surf action at Malibu Point Zero Rincon and Steamer Lane This is to the benefit of the film
