THE ENDLESS SUMMER
Newsweek called it "Breathtaking! Sweeping and Exciting!" Time magazine described it as "a dazzling ode to sun, sand and surf!" Live the dream with California surfers as they follow the summer season to Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Tahiti, Hawaii and California in search of the perfect wave. Still the ultimate surf film of all time!

BAREFOOT ADVENTURE
Explore the guts and the glory as well as the trials and tribulations of these barefoot adventurers as they cruise prime waves up and down the California coast and tame massive breakers in Hawaii. This film features an original score by jazz great Bud Shank, brand-new narration and some of the biggest surf ever ridden at that time, including the legendary Point surf at Makaha.

SURF CRAZY
Ocean pioneer Bruce Brown takes a group of surfers exploring deep into unsurfed Mexico, shows some vintage California surfing and then goes on to the mammoth waves of Hawaii. Features one of the biggest waves ever ridden at Waimea Bay. Be there as some of today's hottest surfing spots are discovered.

SURFING HOLLOW DAYS
Shot in the early '60s when the surfing phenomenon was exploding, this film shows what the surfer lifestyle is really all about. Legendary Bruce Brown travels to Mexico, California and Florida, along with a trip to Australia and Hawaii with Phil Edwards. Features a fifteen-foot shark checking the line-up at Rincon and the first wave ever ridden at Pipeline. Time to hang ten with another of Brown's outstanding surf films--it's almost better than being there!

SLIPPERY WHEN WET
This is surf filmmaker supreme Bruce Brown's first film, made when he was just 20 years old: the story of five surfers on their dream trip to Hawaii, spending an entire winter living and surfing on the North Shore of Oahu on $100 a month. Slippery When Wet features an original score by jazz legend Bud Shank. The surfing lifestyle at its realest!

SURFIN' SHORTS
This program includes three of Bruce Brown's short films: The Wet Set, featuring the Hobie-MacGregor Sportswear Surf Team; America's Newest Sport, presenting the Hobie Super Surfer Skateboard Team; and an early television special that includes the first surfing trip to Japan with 12-year-old Peter Johnson and Del Cannon in a segment filmed, but not used for, The Endless Summer. These films feature an amazing group of surfing greats, including Hobie Alter, Herbie Fletcher, Mickey Munoz, Billy Hamilton, Bobby Patterson, Corky Carroll and Phil Edwards.

The Greatest Game Ever Played

In association with NFL Films, ESPN Films has produced this extraordinary special to commemorate the 50th anniversary of what has generally been known as "The Greatest Game Ever Played" - the 1958 NFL Championship Game between the Baltimore Colts and the New York Giants. Hosted by ESPN's Chris Berman from the actual site of the game, Yankee Stadium, this film features all digitally restored and colorized footage, including plays that have never been seen since the long-lost original game broadcast.

Played on December 28th 1958, this classic title game featured the Giants coming back from a 14-3 deficit to take a 17-14 lead, only to see the Colts dramatically tie it at the end of regulation and then win it 23-17 in overtime. Featuring 17 Hall of Famers (12 players, 3 coaches and 2 owners), it remains the only NFL championship to be decided in overtime. This epic battle was voted the greatest game of the 20th century by ESPN's SportsCentury panel, and no game has been more important to any sports league than the '58 Colts-Giants game has been to the NFL. Coincidentally, the Colts and Giants won the last two Super Bowls heading into the 50th anniversary of the game that helped change the American sports landscape.

In an effort to bridge the past with the present, 11 players from the '58 game (6 Colts and 5 Giants) were paired with coaches and players from today's Colts and Giants to screen the game and talk about life in professional football then and now. Participants in the film include: Raymond Berry, Art Donovan, Gino Marchetti, Lenny Moore, Jim Mutscheller and Alex Sandusky of the '58 Colts; Al Barry, Lindon Crow, Frank Gifford, Rosey Grier and Pat Summerall of the '58 Giants; Tony Dungy, Dwight Freeney and Adam Vinatieri of the '06 Colts; and Tom Coughlin, Brandon Jacobs, Antonio Pierce, Steve Smith and Chris Snee of the '07 Giants.
