ABBOTT & COSTELLO BLOOPERS
The Last Sailors is a journey into the forgotten world of working sail where men still set out, as they have for centuries, to gain their livelihood from the sea. This is the story, filmed over a two-year period, about the last men going to sea under sail to make a living. The production team sailed the world’s oceans to record the remnants of "working sail" and to meet some of "the last sailors" who make their living under sail, whether on board dhows, junks, trading schooners or other working sailboats. Times are changing rapidly, and the deep water sailor who hoists sail and sets out to gain his livelihood from the sea, is left in the wake of technology. This effort represents a systematic search for those places in the world where sailing craft are still part of the economic system. The team corresponded with diplomats, harbormasters, travelers and yachtsman cruising abroad, asking each of them what he had seen of working sail. All too often the replies were "Sorry, you’re five years too late," or "The last one is now in a museum." However, despite frequent disappointments, they finally prepared a list of countries where traditional sailing craft can still be found. The team set out, as fellow sailors, to meet with the men who sail these craft. They showed interest in whatever they might be doing and were willing to take part if an extra hand was needed. Wherever possible, they worked alongside the sailors and tried to share their way of life. They spent days, and in a few cases, weeks, getting to know them before the cameras appeared. The end of this long sailing era is not a peaceful one. Beneath the surface there is a quiet violence as what was ceases to be. Ways of life are in conflict, and even the sea is not big enough to keep them all afloat… Narrated by Orson Welles.
