“John Wehrheim's and Robert C. Stone's film TAYLOR CAMP is a powerful and revelatory work of nonfiction. I say this as a veteran documentary filmmaker who can appreciate the film's craft, as someone who loves Hawaii and have made films there myself, and as a member of the generation profiled by this fascinating portrait.
For years, I've been disappointed by nearly every effort to portray the counterculture I knew in the late 1960s and early 1970s. From HAIR to ACROSS THE UNIVERSE, these efforts have nearly always oversimplified and sentimentalized the era, turning ideals into slogans, culture into commerce, and individuals into cartoons. Yes, MONTERREY POP and WOODSTOCK offered pivotal samplings of songs that helped drive our generation into music clubs, rock festivals, protest marches, and communal living situations. But before TAYLOR CAMP, no previous film, play or TV show I've seen has fully captured the way people I knew looked, and talked, and dressed, and acted during that turbulent period.
Through thirty-year-old photos, some previously unseen film footage, and a fresh round of interviews, Mr. Wehrheim and Mr. Stone not only tell us the fascinating story of a pioneering group of hippies, surfers and troubled Vietnam Vets on the Island of Kaua'i from 1969 through 1977, but also show what it meant to be young and passionate at that time, to experiment with new ideas and lifestyles, and even to try living apart from a society that no longer reflected the dreams and beliefs of its youth. Sometimes, to see and understand the larger picture, you simply need to focus in tight on a handful of people and situations that manage to represent what was happening in many other places. That's what these talented filmmakers have done, and to brilliant effect.” -- Robert Mugge, Ball State University
