A documentary series that seems to have gone extinct 10+ years ago or so ...but hey, 'Jaws' is my favorite movie of all time and I miss Peter Benchley (RIP). I found this pretty interesting.

Shaw didn’t want to play Quint because he hated the novel, but his wife and secretary convinced him to sign on. Kudos to those two.
Highly doubtful today a movie studio would triple their original budget on a director making his second feature film; thank God they were patient, the movie cost 8 million to make and made over 260 million and gave us one of the great pieces of film making ever created.
It was a great move to remove all of the needless subplots from the novel. Ellen’s affair and the mafia forcing the mayor to keep the beaches open were both unneeded in the long term. Even in the book, the first five or so chapters focus on the shark, which is solid. Then the next five or so chapters have barely anything to do with the shark be just focus on melodrama, before focusing on the shark for the rest of the novel. So it’s rather clunky with how it does a hard shift in the middle, and frankly, I don’t think that part works in the novel. Even Spielberg said that he was rooting for the shark because he disliked the three guys that go out to hunt it.
National phobia? INTERNATIONAL phobia. Jaws was a worldwide cultural phenomenon.
no movie has came close to scarring me then JAWS..one of the best film's ever!!!
It's not terribly comforting when a documentary about
In a way, I feel Hooper likely could have been played by various actors….but Dreyfuss nails it and the team chemistry is unparalleled.
JAWS is my all time favourite film. I have the movie poster in my living room.
it always seemed to me that Benchley didnt like his charecters he was writing about. Speilberg made them likable.
The first dvd I bought, ever, upon getting a newfangled ‘dvd player.’ Probably around’97 or ‘98, for my son and I. It’s so great.
The Greatest Movie Ever Made Still Keeps People Out Of The Water!
This movie changed my life. Good upload
Can you imagine Roy Scheider saying “balls” every other scene in the movie? 😆
Priceless documentary. Thanks for posting
It's way more interesting when it's talking about the book. I wish there was more dedicated to it.
Jaws is one of the finest films ever made.

A simply beautiful film.
Interesting and absorbing documentary about this edge of sat movie. Thanks for uploading.
In 1974 Peter Benchley created a novel about a shark called Jaws.
