A documentary about the zypher skate group from the 70's.
Even for an outsider (I don't skateboard) this is a remarkably entertaining documentary, and shows that the early 70's did have a grungy and radical feel away from the hippy movement that the 80's and 90's have tried to forget.
Its quite on sided, being that all the interviewees regard themselves as "accidental revolutionaries" (their words), but far more entertaining than any fair approach to the subject matter could be.
Oh, the soundtrack is superb too.
Hire asap.

That's funny you should mention it. I lent my DVD to a friend yesturday as he's making a skate documentary for his final college piece.
Good film. The music is used really nicely it creating atmosphere.

It was on Sky on Sunday night. I watched and thought it was a good documentary on how Skateboarding got started and how it involved into something a bit more like todays skateboarding.
Been meaning to get hold of this, shall look for it on the cheap maybe.
Apparently at one point, David Fincher and Roger Avary were going to team up on a follow-up called Lords of the Dogtown, which according to Avary would have seen Fincher 'pulling off the most complex effects shot ever committed to film'. For a skateboard movie? But it's not happening now.
Shame.
