Preview: Lords of Dogtown
If you happen to not be hip to that scene, here's the setup: In the 1970s, a
group of teenage surfers from a tough neighborhood known as "Dogtown" in Venice,
California pioneered a revolutionary new style of skateboarding. Riding the
waves at the Pacific Ocean Park pier, the Z-Boys, known for their aggressive
style and hard street attitude, combined the death-defying moves of surfing with
the art of skateboarding and became overnight sensations and local legends. With
empty pools as their canvas, the Z-Boys paved the way to what is now referred to
as "extreme sports," and created a lifestyle that spread infectiously to become
a worldwide counterculture phenomenon. But all of this fame would take its toll
on the friendships that they thought would last a lifetime as the sport that
started out as an afternoon hobby turned into big business.
The film stars Emile Hirsch as Jay Adams, Victor Rasuk as Tony Alva, Heath Ledger as Skip Engblom and John Robinson as Stacy Peralta. Lords of Dogtown, from Columbia Pictures, hits theaters on June 3. It's been rated PG-13 by the MPAA for "drug and alcohol content, sexuality, violence, language and reckless behavior - all involving teens." |
