- Join me for a conversation with Jeffrey Voorhees, who played the young Alex Kintner in the 1975 summer blockbuster JAWS! Alex was destined for a grisly fate the day he swam out into the ocean on his yellow raft and encountered the great white shark that had made Amity Island it's home. Perhaps his mother shouldn't have allowed him to go back in the ocean after his fingers were all pruney after all!
I had the great pleasure of meeting Jeffrey right on the beach where his character met his untimely demise 50 years prior (scene filmed in 1974, movie released in 1975). I hope you enjoy hearing his stories about how he became cast in the role, his filming experiences, and his life since Jaws!

Wow! Great job, Mary! Really enjoyed hearing his experiences and all the behind-the-scenes stories! This was so much fun!
@@barryguillot7208 happy to hear you enjoyed it! 😊
Man was this interview full of great behind the scenes facts and stories. He is really funny. I hadn't heard any of these stories. Great interview and perfect timing for the ☀️!!!
So glad you enjoyed it! ☺
Awesome Mary!!!, Great interview love hearing all the stories surrounding this iconic movie...
@@chadkasal3840 I’m so glad you enjoyed it! More Jaws coming real soon! 🦈
Mrs Mary the best girl ❤
Fantastic, comfortable interview. Nice job.
@@GregFrediani happy to hear you enjoyed it! He looks pretty good for someone who supposedly got eaten by a shark 49 years ago! 😉
This was a great interview. I will be seeing JAWS on the big screen this weekend, so I'll be looking out for Alex Kintner in the marching band. I thought I knew a lot of trivia about the movie, but I never knew he was in the marching band scene. I was hoping you would ask him to say his lines from the movie. Thanks for the video.
@@dianelouise411 I did the same thing after this conversation! You can definitely see him, now that you know. His hair stands out from the other kids!
@@marythegirlygirl There were two boys in the front of the band playing a drum. One in a red shirt the other in a light colored shirt. Was "Alex" the boy in the light colored shirt? Also, did you check out other locations from the movie? I would love to do that someday. By the way, I think the post he showed you on his phone was from The Daily Jaws TH-cam channel. It was posted on their Community Page!
@@dianelouise411 I thought he was the one in the lighter shirt. I did release Part 1 of my 2-part Jaws location video on Sunday. Part 2 will be released this weekend! Hope you enjoy!

WOW... so much work and researched in this video. Thank you! It's like lining up 3 cherries in your slot machine when you grabbed a bit actor in a classic movie. EXCELLENT! His horrifying death precedes the famous dolly in zoom out shot. I wanted to hear everything he's saying cos I've not heard it said ANYWHERE ELSE. I'm sure you know this get a lav mic with wind protection please.
Keep scoring Mary..
Spielberg shot everything with Roy Scheider and Dreyfuss as much as possible before Robert Shaw's arrival from London. Steven gathered the crew and cautioned them to watch their language and loose American behaviour. Strict professional decorum have to be followed. When Robert Shaw arrived first day on set and spotted the prop guy and roared " HEY BILLY YOU SONAFABITCH!" And Billy said " HEY BOBBY HOW THE FUCK ARE YA" Steven Spielberg and the cast and crew jaws dropped!! Robert Shaw and Billy had worked together on The Sting and are drinking buddies
* The famous Capt Quint's Indianapolis speech you see today was a re shoot. The 1st time it was filmed Shaw showed up drunk and blew the scene. Shaw realised his unprofessionalism apologised to everyone and begged Steven to give him another chance
Thank you! Believe it or not I have a mic with wind protection but the wind was too strong for it! Can’t imagine how it would have sounded without it! Thanks for sharing all that info!
