Big Wednesday

Big Wednesday is an epic coming of age buddy sports comedy-drama film that follows three young friends whose passion in life is surfing as they navigate love, relationships, and the Vietnam War against the backdrop of their beloved California coastline. The film tells the story of Matt Johnson, Jack Barlow, and Leroy "The Masochist" Smith, from the summer of 1962 to the end of their innocence in 1968, and their reunion years later for the epic "Great Swell of '74". With its unique blend of surfing, friendship, and coming of age themes, Big Wednesday is a poignant exploration of the loss of an era and the passing of innocence.
