    Jaws is one of those rare movies where every single character is perfectly cast.
    What other movie has characters that you couldn't see anyone else in the role?

    The actress who played Alex kitner's mother is Lee Fierro. Many of the non major actors in Jaws were locals and she was as well. But she was someone who actually had some acting experience. She taught if I remember correctly at the local children's theater. She fortunately passed away due to covid in 2020. Many people who went and did the sightseeing Jaws locations have said that she would meet up with them and was a wonderful woman. The kid who played her son, ended up owning a restaurant on Martha's vineyard and she went there for lunch, and saw that it said on the menu something about Alex kitner and she ended up reuniting with the actor who Alex and that was the first time they had seen each other since the movie films. Even though they lived on the same island. By all accounts she was a wonderful woman

    As far as what happened to Ben gardner, many people think that that is his severed head but from a storyline standpoint, that makes no sense. Mayor Vaughn would have to see the tooth in order for him to believe that the shark was responsible? Well if that was the case I think a severed head would have done the trick. So the most realistic explanation is the shark attack the boat and either Ben Gardner had a heart attack and died, or fell during the attack and was knocked unconscious and the water that was in the bottom of the boat, caused him to drown. And then little crabs and small fish would have picked his I out. That's the most logical explanation based on the available evidence.

    According to Benchley's novel, the fictional town of Amity is located in the state of New York, not in Massachusetts. The film's Amity segments were _shot_ on Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts (specifically, in the town of Oak Bluffs, which served as a stand-in for the fictional community), and while Amity's exact geographical location is never explicitly mentioned in the film, there are a couple of subtle clues that it is probably meant to be in New York, as in the source material.
    Also, *FUN FACT:* Just last month (May 2022), Jonathan Searle, who appeared in _Jaws_ as one of the two young boys who pulled the 'fake-fin' prank, was named Chief of Police in Oak Bluffs, Massachusetts - the very town in which _Jaws_ was largely shot.

Go watch The Twilight Zone 1st season episode "One For The Angels" about the street vendor who wants to make one last really great sales pitch before Mr. Death takes him away. Mr. Death is the same guy as the Amity mayor (Murray Hamilton).
