"One case of apricot brandy. You buy the lunch. Champagne, pate de foie, Iranian caviar, and don't forget the color TV!" The dialogue in this movie is so exquisite!
Its the auxiliary dialogue that didn't have anything to do with the shark and the terrorisation that it caused, that made it somewhat entertaining; that's what made it seem more realistic, Plus as strong a character Quint was, the film didn't become about him; a lot of stuff about the character is hinted and brief, The film remained focused on the main character, which is the shark itself, No character stole the show entirely, it is one of the few films where all characters shared their point of view, Every character was the leading role, apart from the 🦈... The main Antagonist, Jaws 🦈 was the Leading Role, a shark That was one of the many things that made Jaws great
"I'm talkin about WORKIN for a living. I'm talkin about SHARKIN!!"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 He delivers the line with pride, dignity and a manliness. That line tells you who Quint is better than anything. Brilliant and hilarious. Best line in the movie.
"It's Shaw, the obsessively masculine fisherman, who thinks he's got to prove himself by fighting the shark practically single-handed. The high point of the film's humor is in our seeing Shaw get it; this nut Ahab, with his hypermasculine basso-profundo speeches, stands in for all the men who have to show they're tougher than anybody. The shark's cavernous jaws demonstrate how little his toughness finally adds up to." - Pauline Kael
Another angry moment is when Dreyfus glares seethingly at the Mayor after his "bite you in the ass" line. Dreyfus and Shaw played so well against each other.
Its ironic how Quint was being an asshole to Hooper in his workshop, breaking his balls, but when onboard the Orca he is so nice to him, When Quint is up the look out post, and tells Brodie to put out another chum marker, Brodie says why not have Hooper take a turn, to which Quint says 'Hooper drives the boat Chief' even when the Orca isn't even needed driven, 'Stop playing with yourself Hooper!' xD Hooper being a lazy bum playing cards and Quint just lets him, spoiling him, 'Quint, if we can get close enough, I got things onboard that can kill him.' 'Yes, we can use them, come on....' Think Quint was being hard on Hooper to test him, to see if he has the mettle, because it was probably how he was treated on the USS Indianapolis by Senior Officers
During the filming Dreyfuss and Shaw wanted to murder each other, I like to think this helped aid in the tensions between their characters during scenes. On that note I highly recommend going to see the play "The Shark Is Broken" it details what would go on behind the scenes between the three actors whilst waiting for filming to start up and it stars Robert Shaws son Ian Shaw playing his dad (with an almost frighteningly uncanny resemblance I might add)
@@timidhobgoblin207 I wouldn't think there was tension between the characters of Quint and Hooper; the only time there was tension was in the workshop scene, where Quint is breaking Hooper's balls, testing his mettle, But after that, Quint was mostly nice to Hooper, but the actors were known to hate each other, so to come across as if they got on well when in character, that is very good acting skills, I fucking love Jaws, it is one of the best films ever made, no remakes!!! Enhancement of dating special effects acceptable
The simple edit at the beginning of this clip always gets my adrenaline going. The combination of Brody striding out of frame and Quint's matter-of-fact professionalism signal that this film has now kicked into high gear: the hunt is afoot. Editor Verna Fields absolutely deserved her Oscar, and Steven Spielberg sure knows how to make a movie.
He easily has the lion's share of the film's memorable lines and scenes. And it's doubly impressive considering Robert Shaw was frequently intoxicated during a lot of his scenes. I guess he was just getting into character? >.>
He most certainly was! Jaws would have been a flop without Robert Shaw. I hated it when he died. (Both on screen and in real life.) I wonder sometimes where his career might have taken him in the 80’s and 90’s. He might’ve been included in Jurassic Park. Maybe he would have been given a cool prime time show where he played a police detective. Eventually he would have dabbled in comedy and he and Richard Dreyfuss could have been in a sitcom, there are so many unrealized projects Robert Shaw could have participated in.
"Mr. Hooper, I'm not talkin' about pleasure boatin' or day sailin'. I'm talking about workin' for a livin'. I'm takin' about sharkin'." One of my favorite lines!!!
The best piece of acting ever. Notice when Hooper takes that moonshine down and coughs, Quint gives him the most perfectly judgy 'look at this young prick' face. Gold.
One thing I noticed is that while he messes with Brody a couple of times, Quint never insults him for not knowing his way around the boat, nor does he speak any ill towards his kids. Especially considering Brody's oldest survived an encounter with the very shark all three are going after. Plus he gives him pointers on basic boating chores and even teaches him on the spot driving.
I noticed that too, he seems to respect Brody more than Hooper, maybe because he's the police chief, maybe because he's more of a working class bro like Quint himself?
apart from when he smashes the radio up while brodys trying to use it lol. he dose poke at brody and other at the town meeting earlier in the film thow too, saying there too many captins on this island.
Ya but he was mostly referring to boatmen. But the idea being that as a soldier and a cop respectfully, both are men of duty and action and he doesn't treat Brody any different than he treats others in terms of teasing. Plus he shared his homemade booze with the guy, they probably would have been friends had he made it back.
Love how dramatically the stakes feel raised when the film narrows down on its three leads and makes the threat of the shark even more real because we care greatly about their fate.
He gave the shot of that nasty stuff to the Chief as a test. Chiefie failed, Quint, then, deliberately stepped away to give Chiefie a face saving way to spit it out without him seeing.
Arguably the best trio of adventurers ever committed to film. Better than Luke/Han/Leia, better than Indy/Short Round/Willie, better than Aragorn/Legolas/Gimli or Frodo/Sam/Gollum, better than Thor/Rocket/Groot, better than Harry/Hermione/Ron, etc. Only team that might be better is Kirk/Spock/McCoy. Brody, Hooper, and Quint just played off one another soooo beautifully, and were such perfect complements to each other as a trio. Quint's experience and roguish bravery, Brody's pragmatism and professionalism, Hooper's technical and scientific knowledge... Dream Team, man.
Brodie is the character that is actually most like me; he comes off a bit of a jittery coward 🐔, probably because he instinctively realises how dangerous the situation is, 'Gonna need a bigger boat.' 'What are we gonna do, we are quitting right?' Calling for back up at the earliest opportunity, but when forced into a corner, he fought most viciously
In the book it's even more interesting because Brody finds out hooper slept with his wife quints reaction was quite funny bit not brodys the book goes into deeper detail if you notice brodys wife reaction to quints joke when they sail off she runs away crying granted it could be she will miss him but i think it's deeper than that.
Well I just went to see a play in London about the making of Jaws, starring Shaw’s son (playing his father), and he seems to have been spending his whole time goading Dreyfus - apparently to get a better performance out of the then inexperienced young actor… Whatever happened, all three of those actors are legends because of this movie.
@@Rhyskendall8 they liked each other they just didn’t like working together because Dreyfuss took his acting very seriously while Robert improvised a lot
Love the way the edit is made in this scene. Brody is on his way to Quint and we hear his voice first. Really drives the story forward. Every time they walk into Quints shack I smile like Dreyfuss does. We're in Quint's world now.
@Dave The Builder was referring to his personality, not his age. Though there are physical similarities between Quint and my (long deceased) grandfather as well.
There such a diverse background here. Brody, the small town sheriff/family man. Quint, the working class fisherman. Hooper, the rich college boy. All three perfectly casted and expertly acted.
@@mangoglounge7977 Yes I'm sure he would. I'm sure he'd be on Twitter waiting for the president's every tweet so he could reply on his pink iphone "FUCK DRUMPF CHEETO HITLER #biden2020" That really came across from Robert Shaw's performance.
@Jesse Young Foreigner, why should ANY American take ANYTHING you say seriously? It's a New England-based film about AMERICAN hunters trying to bring down a shark in AMERICAN waters. Who honestly cares? You're Canadian. A foreigner. Nothing else needs be said.
@@Chiaroscuro22 He's talking about social class differences, working class vs wealthy class. He's alluding to that Hooper has always been living a luxuary life and never really struggled.
I get what you’re saying, but with Hooper/Dreyfuss clearly ethnically Jewish, I thought there may have been an anti-Semitic element to the slur. Perhaps not.
When I was a young kid watching Jaws, I used to roll my eyes and urge these scenes along... get me back to the shark! Now it's just the opposite. The shark is now just the delivery vehicle for the fascinating interplay of personalities... and the most fascinating of all is the way Quint, Brody, and Hooper all interrelate.
Someone on the Jaws staff had to be watching “All In The family” closely, because there’s a very strong “Archie and Meathead” element going on between Quint (Shaw) and Hooper (Dryfuss) there was tension between the actors behind the scenes and that was used so well in the movie with a strong AITF influence there.
It's ballast. A ballast is extra weight added to the boat to make it heavier and lower its center of gravity. He's referring to Hooper as extra weight.
"Maybe I should go alone." I see this as Quint trying to give Brody an out, knowing how afraid he is of the water and just how dangerous things are about to get.
Don’t confuse characters with actors! People do it all the time! Think! And rivalry on the set.......is for ET! Helps sell a movie! Silly people everywhere ya go!
I think Shaw would purposefully wind up Dreyfus on set so it would set up the rivalry and agro the characters were meant to have which would make it a lot easier for them both than if they were best mates and had to pretend to dislike one another
1:04 - 1:05, I'm just noticing now that Hooper drinks the moonshine just after Brody expressly warns him not to. It's a throwaway bit from the film, not important to the overall plot, but seeing it now, I love it.
This great movie first came out in 1975 I arrived in LA September 1st 1978 on my birthday🎂🍰 Used to live in Culver City California close to Pacific Ocean by maybe 10 miles after I saw the movie I not go near the ocean for years just because🦈🦈 was I scared hell yeah I like to swim but 44 years later I still not go near Pacific no thank you I don't care if I need a bigger boat or whatever yeah I do got City 🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🇺🇲
Could you imagine if Quint was real and found himself in 2021? Could you imagine explaining non-binary, gender-queer, furries, two-spirit and Tik Tok to him? Imagine the look on his face lol
"I'm not talking about fishin' your dick thru a glory hole in a Greyhound bus terminal near San Francisco Bay on your lunch hour. I'm talkin' about SHAARKIN'!"
@Jay Bray Eh it's more fucked up than Jaws Euphemisms for sex. The entire story was more of a gritty noire, but with sharks. Everyone even the "Heroes" were jerks. For example Vaughn wanted the beaches open because he was under mob pressure to do it. One of the people whom owned a beach front property was a mafioso who thought he could make more dollars the more people attend near his property. But what was really fucked up among the sea of gritty was why Ellen Brody fucked Hooper. Apparently a long time ago, she used to date Hooper's brother and fucking him was her own way of bringing back the good times she had with said brother.
@clint45 I think in this case, because Hooper despite the beard is supposed to be the youngest of the cast. With Ellen and Martin being around 30 and Quint around 40 - 50, that she never thought the Shark Expert would be so young. Probably though the carpet matched the drapes.
So there is a deleted scene where Quints hired help refuses to go hunt the shark and quits. Although he helps quint prepare the ship, the deleted scenes explains why he was not with quint on the sea. When you watch the deleted scene, it surely was after quint takes the jaws out of the pan the first time and before he goes up the stairs. That’s why you hear him say “you can’t find a good man these days” as he walks up. Even though the scene is deleted, it doesn’t ruin the whole scene because quint is shown to be eccentric such as signing farewell and saying a poem about Brody’s wife before they leave. It actually fits his character and the audience sees it just as that. Anyway thanks for reading.

Why Robert Shaw didn’t win an Oscar for best actor or best supporting actor is beyond travesty.
Amen to that!
Seriously. Thats why the academy awards are bullshit
Wasn't even nominated. Disgraceful.
Who cares, those awards are all sissy bs anyways
Shaw would have been up for Supporting Actor for Jaws. Roy Scheider was the lead of Jaws, so he would’ve been up for Best Actor.
When Dreyfus throws the rope at Shaw’s head, you can see how angry it makes him.
It’s palpable.

robert shaws scene where he talks about the Indianapolis is the best acting i have ever seen.

Here's to swimmin with bow-legged women! Fuck yeah Quint.
Quint: a real New England waterman of Irish decent.
Yup! Quint is a Irish name.
Actually, with the names Quint, Brody, and Hooper, they're pretty much all Irish. :)
Yo the captain was funny as hell 😂
You really can tell that Dreyfuss and Shaw didn't like one another in real life
Mitchell Myers Actually, Dreyfus had great respect for Shaw.
Don’t confuse characters with actors! People do it all the time! Think! And rivalry on the set.......is for ET! Helps sell a movie! Silly people everywhere ya go!
Can people stop with those false rumors? Richard Dreyfuss came out and said that is a load of bullshit
I think Shaw would purposefully wind up Dreyfus on set so it would set up the rivalry and agro the characters were meant to have which would make it a lot easier for them both than if they were best mates and had to pretend to dislike one another
how cool this movie is
LMAO Maybe I should go alone! 🤣
1:04 - 1:05, I'm just noticing now that Hooper drinks the moonshine just after Brody expressly warns him not to. It's a throwaway bit from the film, not important to the overall plot, but seeing it now, I love it.
Quint is gangsta..!
This great movie first came out in 1975 I arrived in LA September 1st 1978 on my birthday🎂🍰
Used to live in Culver City California close to Pacific Ocean by maybe 10 miles after I saw the movie I not go near the ocean for years just because🦈🦈 was I scared hell yeah I like to swim but 44 years later I still not go near Pacific no thank you I don't care if I need a bigger boat or whatever yeah I do got City 🖐️🖐️🖐️🖐️🇺🇲
whoever said it was right, without old bobby Shaw 'jaws' would have only ever been known as 'gums' RIP Robert Shaw.
👍
Dude has a lot of demands for getting paid 10k lol
Cost average of a new car was 3-4k back then. So yeah, it was real money.
Counting money all your life BWAHAHAHA
Lol haha that line kills me every time.
@@Divine_Serpent_Geh I use that line on my grandson," you've got city hands. You've been playing video games your whole life."
Hooper!!! Ain't you watchin it!
Could you imagine if Quint was real and found himself in 2021? Could you imagine explaining non-binary, gender-queer, furries, two-spirit and Tik Tok to him? Imagine the look on his face lol
ok boomer
I think he would comment with a loud: “Jesus H. Christ!”
"I'm not talking about fishin' your dick thru a glory hole in a Greyhound bus terminal near San Francisco Bay on your lunch hour. I'm talkin' about SHAARKIN'!"
You have a woman's hands Mr Hooper!!!!!!!
Pretty good stuff hehehehe...
in the book Hooper has an affair with Brody Wife
Yeah that makes sense. I'm sure Brody's wife has always fantasized about having sex with an Ichthyologist. "Oh Hooper tell me more about sharks."
"Got a great big white one for you, honey." Lol
"Hooper that's got to be a 20 incher. 25!"
@Jay Bray Eh it's more fucked up than Jaws Euphemisms for sex. The entire story was more of a gritty noire, but with sharks. Everyone even the "Heroes" were jerks. For example Vaughn wanted the beaches open because he was under mob pressure to do it. One of the people whom owned a beach front property was a mafioso who thought he could make more dollars the more people attend near his property. But what was really fucked up among the sea of gritty was why Ellen Brody fucked Hooper. Apparently a long time ago, she used to date Hooper's brother and fucking him was her own way of bringing back the good times she had with said brother.
@clint45 I think in this case, because Hooper despite the beard is supposed to be the youngest of the cast. With Ellen and Martin being around 30 and Quint around 40 - 50, that she never thought the Shark Expert would be so young. Probably though the carpet matched the drapes.
I'm talkin about SHARKIN'!
Don't drink that..
Bigtime1998 But he does anyway... Lol.
Ha ha you heard it too
Probably gasoline lol
Bigtime1998 hey cheaf you try this i made it self pretty good stuff heheh
@@patgogan7324 moonshine
I love how Quint how respect for Brody but no respect for Hooper
City hands lmao
Such an underrated movie.....
?? No its not.
@@roquefortfiles I was being facetious.
@@razenhell6514 Oh. Hard to notice tone sometimes.
So there is a deleted scene where Quints hired help refuses to go hunt the shark and quits. Although he helps quint prepare the ship, the deleted scenes explains why he was not with quint on the sea. When you watch the deleted scene, it surely was after quint takes the jaws out of the pan the first time and before he goes up the stairs. That’s why you hear him say “you can’t find a good man these days” as he walks up. Even though the scene is deleted, it doesn’t ruin the whole scene because quint is shown to be eccentric such as signing farewell and saying a poem about Brody’s wife before they leave. It actually fits his character and the audience sees it just as that. Anyway thanks for reading.
Best character. no question.
