- SUBSCRIBE FOR MORE CELEB INTERVIEWS! Emmy-Winner Jake Hamilton (@JakesTakes) sits down with Oscar-Winner Richard Dreyfuss to talk JAWS, CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND and his relationship with Steven Spielberg -- only on JAKE'S TAKES!
Always liked Richard Dreyfuss. He was brilliant as Matt Hooper.
He wore an Alsta Nautoscaph divers wristwatch in the movie... saw the movie as a ten year old kid as my very first movie in a cinema theater !
@@phmwu7368 best part of £1500 for one of them. Very nice watch.
But he’s no Mott the Hoople
@@keithstark1 But he was a young dude when he made that film.
JAWS is easily one of the greatest films ever made.
bullshit
Yes it is a. Good. Movie. Jaws is
This movie gave me a great childhood I developed an obsessive interest in sharks instead of being frightened of them
It made me a fan and follower of films. A real buff.
I have always wondered why Richard Dreyfuss didn't return for Jaws 2, now I know why. It was purely because he wanted a much bigger salary. I always thought that it was because he was filming both Close Encounters of The Third Kind and The Goodbye Girl, while Jaws 2 was in production.
JAWS 2 came out in 78 didnt it? But yes the other two are both from 77
Richard Dreyfuss wasn’t any under obligation to appear in Jaws 2. Roy Schieder didn’t want to do Jaws 2 at all and he was literally forced into it by Unviversal Studios.
Does anybody know what the piece of sound recording equipment is called that Dreyfuss mentions at @4:22 ?
A Nagra is a portable audio recorder that have been around for years. From the pics I've seen (which is probably a lot like the one the sound guy was using that Dreyfuss mentions) they look fairly big and cumbersome too.
My only 2 movies when I was 9 in 1977 was Jaws and saturday night Fever on vhs - but to say this movie changed the future of movie making is preposterous , as nowadays its all green screen
It singlehandedly created the summer movie season - before JAWS, the summer was a dumping ground for movie studios. Changing technology has nothing to do with the statement.
But it did. It changed everything like Star Wars.
@@JakesTakesTV It did indeed. And the big summer event movie with wide release is still with us.
One of my favorite actors of all time and definitely in the 80s. Not just this but The Competition and later on Mr. Holland's Opus. Fantastic actor.
Absolutely love every second of this movie. Both the sights and sounds of it.Nostalgic brilliance.
I absolutely love BOTH Jaws AND Close Encounters!!!!!
Even though I’m only 21 this movie continues to inspire me and Spielberg is my main role model as a filmmaker (mainly a director)
The making of Jaws is almost as classic as the movie. It would make a really good movie itself.
This would be a fabulous 20 part series on Netflix. The Making of the Movie Jaws. A docudrama with actors cast in the rolls recreating all of the famous stories.
steven did a great job.
I think Steven spielberg is a good role model as a filmmaker too!!!!!!
One of my favorite, and the best actors, in the past two generations.
I just graduated High School and was first in line. What a great movie and great memories.
When I heard that Jaws was being made into a movie I freaked out. I had picked up a copy of the book at a gift shop at the airport before going home on leave from the USAF. It was obviously a popular book,there were stacks of them everywhere. I started it on the plane and couldn’t put it down. When I was transferred to Lowry AFB in Denver and the movie came out I went to see it the first Saturday it was out. I went to the theatre and stood in line for two hours for the showing hours later. Needless to say I made friends with the people I was in line with. We finally got our chance to go inside and the couple I made friends with we sat together. When the scene came on where Hooper and the Chief were out in Hoopers boat and Hooper’s in the water checking out the wrecked boat,when the owners head drops down through the hole in the bottom my new friend taps his girlfriend on the neck. She screams and just about jumped in my lap. Everybody in the theatre screamed. That was the emotional setting for the rest of the film. Jaws today may be a little tame for todays viewers but in 1975,it scared the hell out of audiences. I haven’t been in the ocean since this movie came out,and I grew up in Florida! Thank you Steven Spielberg!
I never went into the ocean again either. Back then I was scared a shark was going to come up from the toilet or out of the bath tub drain.
Mott the hoople-- iron sheik referencing dreyfus' character in jaws
I miss the days when entertainment was made to actually entertain not to push political agendas.
First! :D
This movie indeed scarred me for life. To THIS DAY....at the age of 46.....I STILL refuse to go out far enough to let the ocean cover my toenails. Yep.
I'm 62, saw it as a teenager when it first came out & yes, it's the same for me -- I never went swimming again -- the scene of the young woman 'going down' is to this day the most horrifying thing I have ever seen -- it has remained in my subconscious ever since . .
Me too. I never go further out than to the waist and never further out than other swimmers or alone. And I live in Europe and our sharks are harmless
Time to grow up don’t you think ?
@@amherst88 Same here. I am 65.
"Stop playing with yourself Hooper!" LOL!
Such brilliant movies.
I was a strange child. This movie sparked my love of sharks and pushed me to research them and learn about them. :) I almost became a Ichthyologist because of it.
Yes same here I loved Jaws so much so for my 10th birthday present my parents took me to an under water aquarium where I could see the sharks swimming over me in the plexiglass elevator and tunnel it was amazing
That happened to me as well, minus the Ichthyologist part. I was probably too young to see Jaws when I saw it, but instead of making me fear the ocean, I just wanted to know more and more about sharks and I've always loved the beach/ocean.
One of the greatest movies of all time.

Richard Dryfuss is my favorite actor, ever!!!!! I was scared to death, watching it, PETRIFIED!!!!!!!!!!!!🦈🦈🦈🦈....
I still watch it, when it's on!!!!! It was a classic....
Have always liked Drehfuss..... my kind of guy bring to the pub for drinks .
And he was fired every day...i am not kidding..every day...i love this man :)
Maestro John Williams was a big part (among others) of the success of this epic movie 😊
Ok..... I'm officially old
DR. LEO MARVIN!!!
After all the sh...t i have ever seen in this type of interviews, i suspect Jaws was a total accident that happens to worked well.
Jaws, Close Encounters and Always.
Congratulations on your nomination! 🌷🎉
I cant believe how old Richard Dreyfuss is!! (Soz if i spelled name wrong)
🤫
🎱 was here...
Loved Richard in the film and cant imagine anyone else playing the part. He was fun and funny and natural. But in several interviews I've seen he struck me as grumpy and grim.
The only other one who I can see as Hooper would be Jeff Bridges. Cross his comedic Lightfoot (1974s Thunderbolt and Lightfoot) with his serious Jack Prescott (1976s King Kong) and that could have worked too.
@@lyndoncmp5751 I will totally agree!!!
@@hectoralers84 Very cool mate. Cheers. I think Bridges was actually in the running but not available.
@@lyndoncmp5751 come on a young Christopher Walken would have been amazing! Haha
@@lyndoncmp5751 or a young Nicolas Cage haha
Richard Drafus should do another Shark movie with the sheriff son in the s as same amity town.
I like Dreyfus but he bad mouthed the movie and his own acting before movie came out. I would of not paid him.
Or hired him for the role
Just curious- did the film preserve the original shark Bruce? Is it available to a museum somewhere?
Thats a really good question, i wonder that as well!
Implying the shark really made it terrifying
Love this new? Style of interviews
2024 and still the Best movie, love❤
You're going to need a bigger boat Jaws is the best movie ever
Jaws was classic film but Close Encounters, at least to me didn't seem all that good of a movie...
You obviously haven't seen Close Encounters in a theater.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dreyfuss is so good in Jaws.
This is awesome!
Eating machine…I thought he was speaking of Rosie O’Donnell.
Great video man!
Richard is a good actor but terribly conceited, he didn't reveal it in this interview but many times he congratulates himself and he wasn't a very well liked actor on the sets, Robert Shaw disliked him, Bill Murray hated him and there are others
@@--M--1111 theres no us just you, don't try to sound superior. What concern it is of yours what I think of Richard Dreyfuss? "you personally know him" if not then shut up.
@@--M--1111 oh No!! we have a troll online. Your obviously uneducated female and foreign..its "you" not your, you must learn the english language. No one feels inferior I am just calling you out for being a troll, you come online to comment on peoples comments??? Please get a life and go back to your hole your father is waiting for you
Both were notorious drunks and bullies. Look how many films Bill Murray does. No one wants to work with him.
It’s one of a Hollywood’s biggest myths that Shaw hated Dryfuss . They had an incident at the start of shooting where Dryfuss threw Shaws drink into the sea after he asked him to hold it . Shaw then soaked him with a fire hose . Dryfuss admits Shaw after that “ had his number “ and speaks fondly of him
