An interesting tid-bit about Lee Fierro, who played Mrs Kintner. Long after the filming of Jaws, she was in a restaurant and noticed the menu advertised an item called the Alex Kintner Sandwich. She delighted in telling the server that she played Alex's mother in this film. A short while later, the owner came out to talk to her. He was none other than Jeffery Vorhees, who played Alex.
I had read that before. That. Is very cool. How bizarre. What were the odds?!
The one thing I recently noticed for the first time in this movie is that as the closing credits roll, and the camera maintains that wide shot of the beach, you can see Brody and Hooper off in the distance making it safely to shore on their makeshift life-raft.
That’s what I liked the most
yeh they finally made it!
Yeah, most people have switched off by the credit roll. Makes you think Hoop and Brody weren't that far out to sea, "Keep kicking"
@@bananabrooks3836 "Keep kicking." My philosophy on life.
One of my favourite bits of the whole film
My Dad once broke the record of his hometown by watching this movie 56 times in one summer, all at the movie theaters. Needless to say he LOVES this movie and considers it his favorite and best movie of all time. We always watched it together in the summer. Perfect summertime movie!
I agree wholeheartedly and especially on the 4th of July. Watching Jaws is a 4th of July tradition in our home.
So, your dad has completely no life at all?
@@Some_Guy6wow. Nasty when you don't have to say that to his face, huh? At least he has a RELATIONSHIP with his dad😏
We have the family story and lore of my dad walking to the car bc this was the 70s and drive ins still existed. That when you first saw Bruce he screamed and my family heard it. I was not born yet. I would be born the next year. So it's the lore I know. Lol
The perfect match, someone on the internet that does PERFECT and amazing analysis for a PERFECT and amazing movie!! Keep it up!
100% agreed. Voss is the ONLY TH-camr where you FEEL the excitement of the analysis. He's never overly cynical and explains details resulting from actual proper research.
He's one of the very few I trust and is proven to do a great job.
He's in his perfect "job" and thriving!!
yeah as a dad this really is amazing insight. This movie was THE movie that scared me the most as a kid. Now seeing all this symobolism, detail and care the film makers put into it, I will definately will be my next watch with my son. We recently watched Aliens, which had a lot of mother/daughter symbolism, so Jaws will be a nice progession.
Amen
Jaws is a perfect example of what I learned from Tremors as well: do what you can with what you got.
Have you noticed that the same way Valentine Kills the Motherhumper is very similar to the ending of Duel?
@@PatrickFoxGaming That's right! I never put that together before, Patrick! Thanks!
The one quote from Kevin Bacon in Tremors that I absolutely live by: "We plan ahead, so we can do nothing now."
There are a lot of lessons to learn from Tremors, but the most important of them all is this: Don't break into Burt Gummer's rec room.
one of my all time best movies
Erik, i love how you add a personal touch to this channel specifically. I can tell that each movie you break down is special, to us as complete nerds yes; but also, to your background as a nerd, to what makes you tick. Thanks man, you rock.
Seriously. Seriously underrated comment. Thank you for your vulnerability Erik.
EAVOSS 😢😢
Agreed 💯
For me, the scariest scene is when the two old men go fishing for the shark, the pier gets ripped apart, and one of them falls in the water. I've seen the movie many, many times, and I know how it's going to work out, but my heart still pounds in my chest when I watch this scene. AND-the shark is not seen-not even the fin. I also don't get why people say it looks fake. I think it looks good the few times it's seen.
It only starts to look fake if you become obsessed with jaws and watch the movie 5,000 times
@@iost5459 I'm not at 5,000 views-yet-but I'm sure I've watched Jaws more than a dozen times. I think the shark looks good-way better than any CGI nonsense I've seen.
@@timsmith2525 absolutely!
I think the shark looks off the more you see it, if the whole movie was the shark it would be goofy. I think it’s perfect the amount you see it.
26 years old and directing jaws is crazy….
Quint's monologue is by far the best scene in the movie. Hooper immediately knows what he's talking about but Brodie has to be told.
In 1975 when it came out in germany nobody knows about the Indianapolis here and just hear about the first time, like me at the age of 11. A big thing in the US (like the USS Arizona) but not well known in Europe. Its a big nightmare of mine to think about to be in the Pacific Ocean, thousands og feet water beneath, lots of sharks you cant see and stay there day...night...day...waah...scientists are sure that the attacking sharks were longimanus, great whites are not that often into the middle of the Ocean.
The indy scene had to be re shot because Shaw was drunk the day before and couldn't do the scene.
He then re wrote the monologue himself and delivered it perfectly the next morning.
I haven't seen this review yet so I don't know if this is mentioned
@drhkleinert8241 one of the best monologues in cinema history. 🎥.
Jaws is still in my top 5 movies of all time. I first saw it at 9 years old (1975). I lied about my age to get in. I had to sleep with the light on for weeks afterwards because I thought the shark was going to come up the side of my bed ( the chomp on this scene). 😳. I learned then why movies have age regulations 😆. 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈 🦈
its utterly hypnotizing, a great film moment for the ages...
@@Steve-jd2rnIt is, the review dedicated a lot of time to that anecdote in fact. Awkward comment
JAWS is one of the few (as Quentin Tarantino said), "Perfect Movies" ever made. You can rewatch it from beginning to end over and over and still have an enjoyable experience. It's even better when you watch it as a movie veteran with someone who's never seen it before.
It's like seeing it for the first time all over again.
Don't knock it, try it.
Yessir hahahaha I totally understand the appeal of some of the movie reaction channels, popcorninbed has a great video with her sister reacting to every scene exactly how I think Spielberg was intending lol would’ve loved to see this in theaters in 1975
It truly is.'Jaws', 'Alien' and 'Aliens', 'Predator' and a couple others all are in that category for me.
One of my all time favorite films. For me, this film represents the 70s. I was born in '71. The look and atmosphere feels like it was placed in a time capsule.
I've always loved Dreyfuss's expression while listening to Shaw deliver the Indy monolouge. You can tell he's aware that he's witnessing greatness
yeh, the shock because as marine man he's heard the stories but never from the horses mouth... an utterly captivating scene..
Incredible observations for an incredible film! I also noticed on my most recent viewing that the “wanted” poster for the shark mentions Alex Kintner died on Sunday, June 29 (presumably in 1975, since that was the film’s release year and 6/29/75 was a Sunday), and Quint says that the Indianapolis sank on June 29, 1945 - meaning that the incident that got Quint involved in the shark hunt happened on the 30th anniversary of the incident that made him hate sharks in the first place.
That doesn’t make sense. I’m watchin the film now and the girl who got killed at the beginning, Brody wrote on the death certificate date of death: 07/01/74
Quint's treatment of Hooper and Brody is always so interesting to watch. You get the sense that he does respect Brody, i.e. he always refers to Brody as "Chief" so he clearly respects the man's title even when they're out on the water where Quint is clearly the higher authority. And when Brody accidentally sends the scuba tanks flying, Quint loudly mocks Hooper's choice of equipment and how it's more likely the shark will eat it, then he quietly reprimands Brody to ask which line to pull next time. He won't make a big show of dressing down Brody in front of Hooper. He teaches him how to tie a knot and directs the Indianapolis story to Brody. Yes he'll tease him here and there, but ultimately, he respect Brody.
Quint treating Hooper like a snobby rich kid and an uptight scientist is very interesting too. He acts like Hooper isn't man enough, but right from the jump, we see Hooper throwing himself right into intense situations. First thing he does in Amity is examen Chrissy's remains. Then he inspects the tiger shark AND cuts open its stomach to dig through it. Then after that, he willingly dives into the open ocean at night knowing there's a shark out in the water. So Hooper never shys away from intense situations and isn't afraid of getting his hands dirty like Quint implies.
He is also more lenient towards Brody because Brody isn't a potential rival like Hooper.
Also, fun fact: Robert Shaw (Quint) and Richard Dreyfus (Hooper) actually had issues with each other on set, and it was transferred into their characters.
In my opinion, Quint show Hooper more respect when it turns out Hooper understands the reference to "The Indianapolis."
some great insights and observations here.. I always tell my friends if they hav'nt seen the film (?!) that the shark is merely the vehicle for 3 amazing characters to interact and ultimately unite against a demon..
Agreed, maybe also because Quint sees Hooper as an outsider since he and Brody live in the same town.
Just want to say, as a huge deep diver of the USS Indianapolis, having listened and watched every survivors story and documentary and the movie of course, survivors have said that the sharks were eating the living. One man said that they tried to huddle together in the water to seem larger so the sharks wouldn’t go near them, but as people got delirious from the salt water, they would kind of swim off on their own, and then still alive, they would be eaten by a shark.
My grandfather was a Navy Man during WWII, and me being a WWII Junkie. I wanted to learn about that war as much as I could. When I learned about that maritime tragedy, I of course wanted to ask him about it. When I did, I seen him do something I hadn’t seen him do in the time that I knew him. He cried a few tears telling of the story. I remember vividly him calling them his ‘brothers’, and talking about the harrowing time they went through from the explosion to when the recovery efforts took place. I believe he said he lost some friends during that.
Yeah I've heard that to
Also from interviews of the crew
So that's the only thing I'd say he didn't get right
Cuss I mean the boys of Indianapolis have absolutely no reason to lie about that
It was a tragedy full stop no more no less
And I've seen interviews with survivors that broke down in tears over this
RIP 💔for all the dead 💔
And thank you to all the survivors who got right back in to the war fighting for freedom
THANK YOU TO THE GREATEST GENERATION
We would most likely not be sitting here commenting on this if it wasn't for these guys ❤
Just saying 🇧🇻
Check out shark happens, he tells the story and yeah that's what I've heard also
Was looking for this comment. This is common knowledge. This creator needs to do a better job on his homework.
I have a feeling this Creator did that on purpose so that people would come down in the comments section and talk about it.
Watched this with my dad also. He was a deep sea trawler man who operated in the North Atlantic/Icelandic waters. He enjoyed this movie and would tell me stories of his time at sea. A real bonding moment.
Jaws remains one of my favorite movies. I rewatched it over the July 4th holiday weekend this year.
I truly loved the beginning of the novel where it suggested that perhaps an earthquake forced the shark from the deep waters to a new, human-populated feeding ground and also how during the initial human kill, the woman went into shock when she realized her leg was gone.
That was when I learned about how people go into shock and when I saw her rapid breathing in the movie, I understood what was really going on.
I remember asking my mother way back when why some 80 pages in the beginning of the book only talked about all the businesses that closed because of hurricanes or storms.
It was boring text, but I plowed through it because my octogenarian librarian Sister Anita told me a cardinal rule of reading as if it were somehow written in the margins of the gospels, "Good readers don't read ahead."
My mother pointed out that all that dry exposition explained the motivation for the townsfolk and the mayor to keep the beaches open, despite the shark attacks.
It really didn't matter if it was a shark, an algae bloom or sunspots -- regardless of the threat to tourists, those beaches were gonna stay open, hell or high water.
That's when I began to realize that to the government, hospitals and to corporate America, we aren't really people, we are but votes, tax revenue and consumer dollars, nothing more.
One fan theory that I've heard that I totally agree with is that Martin Brody is a functioning alcoholic, who made a drunken error as a city cop, perhaps resulting in injury or loss of life.
It explains his immediate dismissal of showing off his scar, why he initially allows the mayor to dominate him and smoothly shows how his interractions with drink throughout the film subtly note he is quite a veteran drinker.
Even his wife is fully aware of his love for the sauce. "Want to get drunk and fool around?"
"You should let that breathe..."
Truly, I enjoyed this video and all of your observations, and it only supports my feeling that Jaws is an incredible movie and a literary work that was never equalled or fully appreciated.
I think all knock-off movies and bland action-oriented sequels pale in comparison to this work of cinema art.
It remains one of my favorite movies, and to this day, most people don't really understand me when I say, "The book and the movie is not really about the shark, it's about people."
Best to you-
It's an appendix scar
One thing to remember about that crushing of the beer can, it might have actually been a Tin Can instead of aluminum, making the one hand crush a much more impressive macho moment. those tin cans were much tougher than aluminum.
Do you youngins know that 1970's beer cans, like Quint's Narragansett, were made of thick tin and not thin aluminum? They were tough to crush and even tougher to crush slowly. Hooper's dramatic crushing of that paper cup was iconic.
(Erik, this was your best video ever. Amazing.)
Cans have never actually been made of tin, they were steel coated in tin for corrosion resistance ("tinplate"). My Dad had a story about one time when modern aluminum cans were just taking off, but some brands still used steel cans, one of his buddies at the bar got in an argument with another guy, and when the other guy suggested they take it outside, Dad's friend smashed his aluminum can on his own forehead. The other guy, to prove he was also a badass, tried to do the same, but he was drinking a cheaper beer from an old-stylencan, and almost gave himself a concussion.
The first blockbuster!! We watch Jaws every year
Didn't realize this was gonna be a father son breakdown... Love when Eric gets personal, it adds a layer to all his breakdowns.
I was just thinking about re-watching the first Jaws, because I watch all the ocean based/Shark documentaries. Thanks Erik for the in-depth breakdown.
😁💯💪🏽
This was sublime. I've loved all the Deep Dives, but this one ... "waiting for his turn"? Just so sublime. Thanks Erik and team.
Erik's enthusiasm and love for movies is so contagious and this is why I love the man so much. His personal anecdotes on why he loves the movies he covers really makes me emotional and makes me want to love movies more. Thank you Erik ❤️❤️
The shark exposes the deepest fear within each of the three characters. Brodie's fear is failure to make a difference. He came from New York where he couldn't make a difference because the crime rate was so huge but in Amity one person can make a difference. Hooper is a scholar and his fear is the unknown. Well, when the shark takes three barrels down, and Brody asks if he's ever seen one do this before, Hooper shows fear for the very first time in the movie and says no. And quints fear is vulnerability. He was vulnerable with a life preserver on waiting to be picked up and rescued and he's never gonna do that again because it was the most scared he had ever been. He'd rather die than wait for his turn again.
My background with Jaws is the same as yours. I grew up in the 90’s watching the VHS with my dad. I was luckily enough to see it in 2015 in the beautiful Pittsburgh AMC Waterfront. Which is my favorite movie going experience to this day. Then this year I brought my parents and my niece to the 3D release of Jaws. It’s the perfect movie.
You reenacted the dinner table scene with your Dad? Thats so boss!!! One of my favourite things about early Spielberg was the character interplays, so well done in Close encounters too, the relationship with parent/child. After seeing The Fabelmans, can see where all that feeling came from.
That scene wasn't scripted. The chief and the kid were sitting at the table between takes and the kid just started doing that. Everyone thought is was so cute they filmed it.
This movie is so amazing, So happy that you are covering this movie! 👍
I’m sure your dad is very proud of you Voss. It’s obvious that he’s a very important person in your life. I just turned 39 and I lost my dad about 6 months ago and while he was no American hero he did his best. Cherish the time you have my friend.
The sharks didn't just attack the dead with the Indianapolis. I've seen multiple people who were there say they weren't always able to fight off the sharks. Just like in the movies, the dude sinks down and red floats up. It happened. Terrifying stuff.
Jaws theme is actually the notes E and F, not F and F#. I know it varies in some scenes, but the opening is specifically E and F.
One of my favorite movies of all time. I stop whatever else I’m doing anytime it comes on. My very favorite camera scene is the zoom in on Brody’s face. It doesn’t get better than that. Thanks for this in depth look at it.
Thanks Eric, Jaws is my favorite movie of all time and was my Dad's favorite movie as well. We watched this movie all the time and those memories will always be precious to me!
I really don’t want summer to end. These videos are all amazing and props for the editing!
The movie we’ve ALL been waiting for!! 🦈
@@DeepDiveNR I have loved this series so far. Can’t wait for ET and more
I love that any true Jaws fan knows and appreciates just how incredible this movie is. We’re coming up on the 50th anniversary of this film, and it still holds up all these years later. I personally believe that the litmus test to this being the greatest film of all time is the fact that it hasn’t been “rebooted” or “remade”, and probably never will be. And all that is because a young Spielberg showed just how much of a master he is at his craft, and because no cast will ever be able to replicate the chemistry between Shaw, Dreyfuss, and Scheider. The back half of this movie, in my opinion, is the greatest segment of film ever created. Especially the monologue from Quint and the best climactic quote of all time, “smile you son of a…..”. Hands down the most satisfying payoff. My god, I love this movie. I also love the sequels, though obviously none of them ever could live up to the OG. And yes, that includes“the revenge.” Lol. It’s a guilty pleasure, mostly because I was a kid when it came out and I loved it then, so I revisit it every once in awhile. This was a great in depth look at this movie. Absolutely nailed it and gave it the respect it deserves.
Eric! This is one of your best break downs! Love how you tied in the father part. I’m loving the old classic movie break downs
Can you do a breakdown of Gremlins (1984)🙏🏼
Watching at 3am. Worth it lmao
Haha cracked up when he mentioned Duel, i remember being in elementary school in the 90s and got into horror films and remember expecting another evil dead/predator/the thing/jaws but got just pure shlock and an evil truck
Damn just finished this breakdown, it was so compelling. Bravo Eric
love being able to dive deep with you and get to know you on a totally new level on this channel, Erik.
I hope you do deep dives of the blade runner movies
This is by far one of the best Jaws breakdowns....first because I think Eric is one of the best out there and second because you can tell what a fan of this movie he is. This is one of the best movies ever along with one of the best movie breakdowns.
One of my favorite things about going to Universal Studios as a kid was the Boneyard and seeing one of the shark animatronics.
That was amazing. I’ve never seen some the things you pointed out. I love this film and it is a huge part of my childhood. I can’t wait to rewatch it again after watching your deep dive into it. You are amazing Mr. Voss. Keep it up.
This Deep Dive channel seriously rocks. Loving it!
Deep dive duel please one of my favorite films ever
An absolute masterpiece & i love how you give it a different perspective by showing family, specifically fathers, are fighters for their children. The only scene i got frustrated at was the Ron and Val Taylor footage whilst Hooper was in his cage - there is a 25ft Great White weighing 3000lbs, but we have Brody holding on to the ropes bare handed, supposedly losing all fear, with his head inches from it, as it thrashers around on the surface!!! Its impossible to imagine, lol! The real footage the Taylors caught was a highlight for me, just finally seeing a real beautiful shark of its size was brilliantly done. A wonderful movie & thanks for an awesome deep dive!! 💯👏👏👏
Awesome breakdown! Always giving me that additional knowledge!!!👊🏾
I love these deep dives into some classic cinema! Great choice for a channel, and bigs thanks for reinvigorating the movie lover within ❤
I love how Brody used an m1 garand to finish off the shark because it makes me think about how quint just had a ww2 firearm just laying around
He was in WW2
Jaws...a timeless masterpiece and the offspring of Duel...another timeless masterpiece ❤ Roy Scheider was incredible in this, he was in his 40's when it was filmed. He was an ex amateur boxer in real life considering going professional before his acting career. Look at the physical condition of him in Jaws, lean and fit and 43 years old.
Excellent review! Thank you!
Man... I truly love your breakdowns and the Deep Dive channel. Thank You
Fantastic vid! Well done!
Love this movie and deep dive. Great now I’m late for work…lol
Exquisite breakdown as usual. Thanks Erik! Keep 'em comin'!
Erik, an excellent analysis Thank you 🙏
I was a little kid when this came out and my folks felt I was too young to see it but I got my paws on the paperback by Peter Benchley and read it at least 4 or 5 times lol. Years later having seen the edited for tv ones many times I bought my first vcr and have owned copies of the movie in one form or another and I'm 55 now lol. The movie is major comfort food to me. I love it very much.
I also recommend The Deep by Peter Benchley. Movie stars Robert Shaw , Nick Nolte and Jacqueline Bissett. Great stuff!
Awesome video erik love everything you do!!
I love the channel, and the way in which you deliver the analysis. You go just deep enough for the entertainment, but try not to go down a rabbit hole. I have been loving your content for a while. It is nice to hear about your family. As a father of an Eagle scout, and someone that helps the scouts, I am relating to you even more. Thank you for bringing this scouting nerd joy every week.
Wow. Over the top analysis. Fantastic takes on this. Thanks!!!
Saw this '82 at the age of 7. Had nightmares about sharks for years.
My Dad had a malevolent sense of humour and would tease me with the Der-Dum sound for years.
At the age of 48 I can safely say that this film definitely proves Spielberg to be an incredible Director and Producer.
10 Things Left Out of this Breakdown
1. When Bruce appears in the ‘Come chum some of this shit’ moment there is no music like the prior attacks. This was done on purpose to scare the audience more.
2. Spielberg specifically shows the legs of Brody’s son’s legs to relieve the audience from thinking the son had lost his leg.
3. If you change the brightness on your TV, you can see more of Chrissy than you probably should.
4. The head popping out of boat was filmed in LA in a swimming pool. Spielberg wanted the head to pop out more so he could get a bigger scream.
5. When Quint talks of the shark biting through “piano wire”, he literally means piano wire. In an unused scene, Quint is seen buying piano wire.
6. The shark attacks correspond directly to the actual shark attacks in 1916 in New Jersey.
7. Craig Kingsbury, who played Ben Gardner, was an inspiration for Quint.
8. Frank Mundus, a shark fisherman, was also an inspiration for Quint.
9. The Orca was modified to give it bigger windows to make the characters more exposed to the ocean and the shark, and thus create more fear for the audience.
10. Another actor is in the cage, not Dreyfus at the end.
11. Author Peter Benchley plays the news reporter on opening day.
Fantastic breakdown. I recall watching this as a little kid in the early 80s on a VHS recording off the TV with commercials. TNT in the 90s did an anniversary screening unedited, also with commercials. Wore both of those tapes out. Will always love sharks because of this movie.
The take that this is about fatherhood is really great. Love the videos. Keep it up!
Yes great video. !!!!! Loved watching this x
Outstanding DEEP DIVE! Thanks so much for creating this fantastic breakdown. I will now rewatch the film with all these juicy bits in mind. Thanks for all your content. Well done!
The speech delivered by Quint about the USS Indianapolis tragedy is a true story, an actual historical fact. It really happened! His story relating the incident is one of the most epic monologues in cinematic history, and is the key to his character and his obsession with killing sharks. He smashed the radio not only because he was determined to personally secure the bounty and reward for killing the shark, which is strictly a secondary consideration for him, but rather because he wanted revenge (or perhaps redemption) for his horrific experience, which he can only achieve by destroying the man-eating shark himself…
Yeah we knew it really happened, Erik talked about the event at some length. I'm pretty sure at least 7 out of ten people have at least heard of the USS Indianapolis.
Notice the shooting star at the end of the scene.
That's real, not a special effect.
Already being familiar with the Indianapolis sinking (love military history), I always took the radio smashing (while also being for the reasons you stated) as Quint remembering how the SOS calls from the Indy didn't do anything. When the military ignored his ships calls for help, that instilled a "you're on your own" mentality in him; especially when it's on the open ocean.
It was TWO shooting stars so cool@@abegarfield7031
This was absolutely amazing! As a massive Jaws fan, seeing so many videos and documentaries, this was the BEST breakdown I've ever seen! Great detail as well as it not being drawn out! Sooooo good!
Erik, I love your personal touch on these breakdowns, and I truly love your analysis and passion for media. Watching movies and shows comes with the synonymous need to watch your thoughts and reviews. Keep up the great work on all the channels, and keep your head up through uncharted waters! Love you and the whole team at new rockstars.
These are excellent Eric. The personal stories about why these movies are important to you is powerful.
Your analysis is absolutely incredible! Thank you so much for sharing!! This is still my favorite film 🎞️
Hi Erik! Been watching since right before infinity war! I love how y’all have grown in the last years. This channel always feels like a reminder where you started!
Keep doing these videos!!
I think you could combine 1 and 2 to make one epic movie. Not just a double feature, but edited into one.
Thanks so much for all your great work. Love from Belgium 🇧🇪 ❤
Fantastic coverage of this film!!
Thank you Erik we all appreciate what you do so much and I love how you shared what your relationship was like with your father thank you
LOVED LOVED LOVED Jaws and so so so enjoyed this!!!! Stood in line around the theatre, waiting with excitement to be one of the first to see it! Thank you!!!!
Really enjoyed this one, thanks :)
I'm not sure what happened with your research with the music portion, but the opening notes of the movie are E and F, not F and F#, and they are not played on the tuba, but bassoon, cello, and bass. If you mean the theme that comes in AFTER these repeated notes, then that is in the tuba AND horns AND harp. If you need a film music nerd to help you out with these videos, hit me up, kinda my jam
Love the breakdown! The notes of the Jaws theme are actually E and F rather than F and F# but other than that, spot on! Thanks Erik
Thank you for this
May favorite Spielberg project! Thanks for covering this.
Two bad I can only give one thump up for this! Thanks Eric, great deep dive!
This is one of your best videos out of all.
Frank Mundus was a fisherman and charter captain based in Montauk, New York who is said to be the inspiration for the character Quint in the book and movie Jaws.
Well said. Loved hearing about your relationship with your father.
Well that was awesome. The best review and breakdown of any film i have every seen. I have seen Jaws over a dozen times but i will enjoy it even more next time due to your video. Thank you so much.
I just came here to say that I loved your insight into the movie & thought you were spot on point 😊
Perfect timing! I just watched Jaws this week on Peacock ❤
I loved your breakdown of the movie! You and your fellow presenters continue to impress!!!
12:26. When my mom did Meals on Wheels when we lived in Massachusetts, she delivered meals to Lee Fierro, I got to meet her and she was really sweet and nice. Even gave me a hug.
Just watching your analysis makes me want to revisit Jaws. An all-time classic. Eric...keep up the Great work!
That was great! Thanks.
I just watched this last night. Has to be one of my favorites
Jaws scared me so much I stopped nighttime swimming in our POOL!!!😂
I just watched this for the first time today. Great film! The practical creations hold up to this day. Can’t believe it was filmed before I was even born.
I love watching people watch movies like this for the first time. If it's a classic that I seen a few times, and I've gotten somebody to watch it for the first time their facial expressions and their excitement and their fear is just like a high for me. I get so excited that other people are excited about the same movie I'm watching. I am glad you loved it, Jaws is cinematic perfection
Duel and Jaws do make a great double feature.
Thanks for enlightening the amazing details that I couldn't see. Now I'll watch it with even a better sense of appreciation and I know I'll get more engrossed into this perfect film.
