Bluesdoctor said it all. He is the only one not to be mesmerized by the movie and sees the good doctor for what he is. Too bad the others are so taken by the dream of a lifetime of surfing that they cannot see how the lives of his children were ruined by his narcissism and selfishness. I never met Dr.Paskowitz. However,I am a surfer. Many of my friends and a few of my sons have met him. I have 7 children and they are all surfers also. I'm a doctor too but I have spent my life working for the poor and disadvantaged. My kids are well adjusted and happy even thought they have to work like the rest of us. We surf as much as we can but we have another life also. I guess that it's too late for Dr.Paskowitz to try it. I am surprised by some of his statements because he doesn't seem like a scientist and we doctors need to be scientists as well as healer. He should have remembered the old adage, "Physician,heal thyself."
