A classic... 50 years on.
Great movie. Still can't believe that Ron Funk found our little website and gave us an amazing comment: https://14erskiers.com/blog/2008/11/...-the-ski-bums/
Amazing comment from Ron. Relevant Funk reading: https://www.nytimes.com/1970/11/15/a...on-the-go.html
One of the great moments from BBIEuro was drinking in the back bar at Vendul's place, watching this flick after a stellar day of skiing with new mags rolling in.
Cheese and crackers
Cool red wine
Backseat livin' suits me fine
Scrimpin' & savin'
Just to buy me one more run
And they know my name
Ohhhh...Ski Bum!
Watched it last night. Excellent. Loved seeing Robert Smith, Killy and other pioneers.
Thank you for posting this up.
Bump for a great film! The links in posts #2 and #3 are definitely worth following - good stuff there!
And since the video clip in the thread opener seems to be dead here's a replacement...
