Shark eats people. People act irresponsibly. Shark eats more people. Three unlikely heroes go off to face the beast.

Jaws was the first movie to captivate me. I’d watch it every chance I could as a child. As I grew up and learned to appreciate film and acting, I noticed the perfection in the performances between Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider. The intensity never subsides for the last 45 minutes. It’s inspired. This plus the inventiveness of Steven Spielberg’s direction with all the technical issues they suffered through shows the spirit of traditional American spirit. Succeeding in the face of adversity.
