Every shark movie feels so rushed and piss poor It's basically just an hour and a half of a Gore fest Although I don't really mind them I really like watching people get eaten But this one, this one is cinema. You actually get an experience worth your wild The only other movie from this age I can say had effort put into it was The Meg
Robert Shaw was robbed of an Oscar..every moment he is on screen he absolutely owns it.. unbelievable intensity in his performance, yet uncannily heartfelt and emotional talking about his experience aboard the USS Indianapolis... searing, heartbreaking and terrifying story..and all of it true
fun fact: the role of Quint was written with Lee Marvin in mind to play him. Robert Shaw turned out to be a great choice, but I sometimes wonder how the movie would have gone if Marvin hadn’t turned the role down.
Yeah what happened to movies where you felt part of the story? Like at the end where they're clinging onto scraps from the boat you hope they make it as you put yourself in that situation. Like the long journey is over. Movies don't provide that feeling anymore. That Homeward Bound, the goonies type movies
@@iandanielcassidy8126 Appealing to widest the audience is what the bean counters want because that's where you get the Billion dollars. Jaws and Star Wars are really to blame.

@@almiraraspado3599 Absolutely. I love how it dribbles down the drain with dread in this scene. Theres almost a little harbinger or a call that the main shark theme is about to begin. It's like... here comes the main event
The funny thing is that when Williams first played the demo, Spielberg was like “That’s it? Where’s the rest of it?” Haha. But he quickly realized, after it was released, that it was absolutely perfect for film.
@@MarcFaucher-ny7zjI really like the book, however Benchley made a lot of the characters in the book really quite unlikeable (Hooper and Ellen Brody in particular), and the ending was a bit anti-climactic in the book vs the film. Those changes (the ending and making the characters likeable), were essential to Jaws being as good as it is. You root for all the characters (even the mayor is sympathetic), and that is a major part of why it’s so good - particularly important to the second half of the film, as the camaraderie between the three on the boat is one of the many reasons is such a great film. ……but I’d certainly recommend people read the book if they hadn’t. Like you said they’re missing out on a treat there.
Freaky aye he says u should get Hooper to do it,Quint says Hooper drives the Boat.His reaction is priceless Chief throws the Chum and Jaws is there that would of scared a few at the time and the best saying We Going To Need A Bigger Boat he's rite Orca is old small and very slow,Quint didn't figure that out
Fun fact: when _Jaws_ was first test-screened, everyone in the audience was so startled by the shark's appearance that they were still screaming when Scheider said: "You’re gonna need a bigger boat." Because Speilberg didn’t want real audiences to miss the line, he & the editors extended the scene enough for people to settle back down and start paying attention again after seeing the shark; he also raised the volume of Scheider's voice for good measure.
2:18 "That's a 20 footer" ..... "25....3 tons on him" Love how even during the most climactic moments, Quint and Hooper still quibble over the most trivial details"
That's the best line of the whole movie. Followed very closely by "bigger boat". This whole scene is right up there in the best cinematic scenes ever. I don't see it as argumentative though- not to say you're wrong or anything- I just see it as a little more experience showing itself. And I could be wrong.
Voice of experience, definitely. What I love is the delivery... No shouting. Both of them with that "oh shit..." look on their faces. It was perfect! And the end of the scene... Brody STILL wants to get a bigger boat!!!🤣🤣🤣
I must've seen this movie at least 50 times and every time it blows me away. Thank you Steven Spielberg for giving us so many timeless movies, an unequaled collection of cinema classics that all started with Jaws!
I saw the movie 2 times when I was about 11 years old on tv and both times I got tired(it was 23:00) so I slept just about when -hooper was getting in inside the cage. I missed the best parts of the movie two times.when I finally saw the rest of the movie(about 15 years old).I was electrified by the attack scenes.for 30 years still my favorite movie. Cgi shark socks.
I was lucky to be old enough to see this in the theaters for the first time with my cousins and sister. We were teenagers on our way to the beach and we decided to take in a movie before we went into the water. HAHAHA. Worst choice ever! But an amazing and classic film. The audiences were going wild when the shark showed up!
I was born in 1969, and not only is this the best shark movie ever made, it's one of the best movies ever made, period, at least when it comes to plot development and character development.
His best movie by far was ET (followed closely by First Encounters of the 3rd Kind). This was a totally STUPID movie. I mean where's the HARPOON GUN those things are beyond NASTY! And they were invented in the 1800's to take out animals a LOT bigger than a Great White! Yeah one shot ANYWHERE and BOOM whatever it hits catches an immediate case of DEAD! And they even had lines attached to the business end so they could just reel whatever it hit right on in. I guess Spielberg never heard of those guns but tell you what I woulda had a couple of those nasty things onboard.
Everything about JAWS is top notch. The cinematography was stellar, the editing was spot on, the cast couldn’t have been more on point, and the soundtrack was phenomenal. They truly don’t make ‘em like this anymore!
1:48 This here is one of the greatest villain introductions ever on screen! I know the shark has appeared a couple of times before this, but when this music plays and Bruce begins approaching, I get chills all the way up my spine!! The villain has come to challenge the heroes, in the same way as Dracula, after he claimed a number of victims. As Bruce circles the boat, it's his way of saying "Alright, you fools. You've brought it on yourselves!" Bruce is done hiding. He WANTS them to see him! It's at this point the heroes know that the battle has begun and they must stop him, even if it means sinking to the bottom of the sea!
Yeah the build up of the shark to this point throughout the film has led to this moment and makes the actual confrontation of what they’re facing “a 25 ft 3 ton great white with malice and will” all the more powerful and threatening,
Fun fact: when Jaws was first test-screened, everyone in the audience was so startled by the shark's appearance that they were still screaming when Schneider said: "You’re gonna need a bigger boat." Speilberg didn’t want real audiences to miss the line, so he & the editors extended the scene enough for people to settle back down and start paying attention again after seeing the shark; he also raised the volume of Schneider's voice for good measure.
I can't marvel enough at the way Spielberg edits John Williams music into his films. That harpsicord rake at 2:10 when you see the full size of the shark for the first time is epic no matter how many times you watch this.
Spielberg was smart to only suggest the shark until well over half the move was done. Makes the firs view that much scarier. I saw it in the theater when it first came out, and the entire audience jumped out of its collective skin.
1:47 the suspense building up, with the music playing, as the shark's slowly swimming towards them with the fin breaking the surface just gives me goosebumps like always.
When it first aired on TV, the "with yourself" was removed. I recall it vividly because I taped it with an audio cassette recorder and listened to the movie endlessly. They also changed "Foreground my ass" to "Foreground my eye!"
This scene combines, terror, comedy, adventure, and wonder all without changing the main setting, characters, or involving any large scale cgi bonanza of action to do so, it can simply be describe as just three dudes being startled by a big fish, but it’s so much more than that, God this movie is so amazing!
I was born in 1993. And this was the first thriller I saw at a very young age 😂 And it ignited my interest, love and knowledge of sharks. I can’t even go a month without watching this movie. It never gets old!
@@stuartryan9035 All I'm going to say is thank you for the information. I was born in South Africa but I live and work in Wales now. But again regarding sharks they don't tend to attack humans unless we seem like we're in distress. I know its easier said than done.
@@stuartryan9035 exactly! Thank you! I’d love to go cage diving and encounter a great white (Mako I’d my fave cause it’s me in shark form lmao) but I love sharks and I hope they’re being protected on your end!
Fun fact: this scene was rehearsed 20 times where the shark jumps out of the water. 19 times Schneider was ready for the shark, the 20th time he wasn't so the reaction was his natural reaction. That's the take that was used for the film.
It wasn't "rehearsed" per-se. They tried to film it 19 times, but "Bruce" the mechanical Shark didn't work the first 19 takes. It finally worked on the 20th take.
Another fun fact: the first time _Jaws_ was test-screened, everyone in the audience was so startled by the shark's appearance that they didn’t hear Schneider say: "You’re gonna need a bigger boat;" they were still screaming. Speilberg didn’t want real audiences to miss the line, so he & the editors extended the scene enough for people to settle back down and start paying attention again after seeing the shark; he also raised the volume of Schneider's voice for good measure.
I think the biggest shock sequence in there was bens boat where the head pops out. It scared the s**t out of me when I first seen it. But then again i was only about 8 years old
I completely agree! Jaws is my favorite movie of all time and I consider it a work of perfection!! Bruce is one of my favorite movie villains of all time as well! He's not a maniacal mad scientist or a crazed slasher villain with an arbitrary motive! He's just an animal with an overwhelming instinct to devour! He has no empathy, no reasoning, and no feelings whatsoever!
Edited with what they had. It was supposed to go down way differently, but due to issues they had to change things up. Show less of the shark, build tension. What came of it shows why Speilberg is one of the masters - he made gold with what he could do.
@@bad2dabohn1992 when Hooper runs down the ladder and John Williams music takes off to start the shark hunt it is just so fabulous . The film takes flight. It reaches another level
@ Universal please keep flooding us with the 4k clips this film is almost 50 years old but the suspense and longevity is timeless!! There wouldn’t be a shark week without Jaws🦈
Jaws is one my favorite childhood movies ever. I wasn’t even scared of the shark or the movie itself. Spielberg did a fantastic job directing this movie 47 years ago
You can have all the modern technology when making the latest films but nothing has ever come close to beating this absolute classic..... its still as good today as it was back in 1975 with 3 great actors and an unbelievable performance by robert shaw
The fact that Robert Mattey's mechanical shark barely worked actually helped Jaws work so well as a horror movie. As a shark, Bruce is supposed to be elusive and mysterious. A massive predator that can strike out of nowhere with ferocity. It's a good thing that the shark is rarely seen because it really escalates the tension.
JAWS is not a Horror movie. Not even close. It's an adventure movie and Spielberg directed it as such. Spielberg himself made it very clear that Jaws is not a Horror movie.
Bruce was never scheduled to be used for the beach scenes though. They were all filmed May to early July 1974. Bruce was not scheduled to be used until the Orca based scenes. The shark is hidden in the first half of the film on purpose. The very first shark incident filmed was the pier/holiday roast scene. This was filmed in late May, in just 3 ft of water. They never had any intention of using Bruce for it. Far more of Bruce was supposed to be shown during the Orca scenes but not for the beach scenes. The first half of Jaws was filmed more or less on schedule. It was the Orca based scenes where it all went wrong. 👍
@@lyndoncmp5751 If I remember correctly, they were originally planning to show the shark in full when it attacks Alex Kintner (there's a photo where you see the shark launch its head out to eat him) but they thought that was too disturbing
The elusiveness of the shark was in the script it was not a result of it not working. The use of the barrels without seeing the shark was in the screenplay
Jaws is a masterpiece. One of the all-time great films in cinematic history, and in my opinion, Spielberg's best. It lacks the syrupy sentimentality common to many of his later movies.
I hate when people try to create fake “facts” about movies to somehow make the scene “better” in their eyes. Usually it’s centered around wanting an actor’s reaction to be genuine or real, like it would somehow validate the scene. It’s called ACTING you big doofus. and the scene of Roy jumping back and walking would have been different takes done over several days.
@@JetConvoy Fyi. Roy's famous reaction shot was filmed two weeks after the shark surfacing. People seem to think that what they're watching is one continuous moment. When they shoot his reaction shot the shark isnt even involved
One of my favorite scenes of all time, in particular the excerpt from 2:08 to 2:24; the shot of the shark under the boat and the three of them watching in awe coupled with the music, and that little exchange between Hooper and Quint.
The acting in a word is amazing! Additionally, the camera angles and choice of shots (editing) are impeccable. Lastly, the soundtrack by Mr. John Williams is perfect and moves the film along. "Jaws" in my book is among the greatest films ever made!
‘ 2:29 I love how Quint and Hooper jump into action because this is what they do, and Brody is wondering if they lost their minds. You can see it on his face. 😂’
I love how Shaw calmly says, "25....three tons on him." Brody and even Hooper were blown away but Quint, with a lifetime at sea, reacted differently. Robert Shaw did an amazing job expressing expertise and knowledge as Quint.
Everyone talks about Brody’s reaction to seeing the shark for the first time, but not enough people talk about Quint’s reaction. This guy has been through so much (as we find out later in the film), to the point that nothing could surprise him. But look at his face at 1:57. He’s clearly at a loss for words. As an audience member, this is when we know that this is not gonna be a walk in the park, when the seasoned professional looks thunderstruck by a creature he’s had so much experience hunting over the years.
Great observation. I can’t figure out whether he’s phased by the sharks’s size. Or whether he’s excited, even turned on, by his biggest challenge yet. If he’s phased, he shakes it off pretty quick. And gets straight into war mode
The bantering between these 3 is endless,timeless and legendary.Like enemies and then the best of friends that sound freaked u amazing at times when Jaws was around it's perfectly done.Brody is right they needed a bigger boat Orca to small,Hooper it's a 20 footer,Quint no 25,3 tonnes of him
When Dreyfuss stands up and races down the ladder and the music takes off to start the shark hunt.. oh man!. Shivers every time and I've seen this movie hundreds of times. They absolutely nailed it. A classic
And Hooper can't take much abuse any longer with Quint.So bossy i get that everyday at Home, Play and Work sometimes how much i can take it any longer in life thru the good and bad.And Brody says why don't we drive him to Shore instead of him taking us out to Sea
No one has ever recaptured the suspense like Spielberg. Also, he understood the secret to the film wasn’t playing his hand, and revealing the monster at every turn. He kept the shark “under wraps” till the last act. To make up for that, he really fleshed out the characters and made audiences care about their journey and fates.
The fact they didn't reveal the shark until the third act was in the script. It was not a function of the shark not working. It was a function of good writing.
@@roquefortfiles No - when the shark kept breaking down Spielberg realized he had to make the best of that problem and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise to keep the shark hidden for as long as possible was great.
@@roquefortfiles then Spielberg has been lying for the last 48 years he always says "oh I got lucky when the shark didn't work it forced me to go the classic suspense route where the monster that you don't see is scarier I wanted the audience to imagine just how big this shark is and I was able to do that because the damn thing kept breaking down it never worked when we wanted it to work" - this is what Spielberg has said hundreds of times since 1975 so he must be a liar saying this to make himself look brilliant which he was and is.
No. No entirely!! The shark not working had nothing to do with when it shows up in the movie. Its "Big reveal" in the chum scene in the third act of the film (Here) was in the script. It had nothing to do with the fact that it kept breaking down. The shark being kept "Under wraps" until the third act was a function of GOOD WRITING and a testament to how good the script was. They kept it off screen to ratchet up the tension. The fact that "Bruce" barely worked had nothing to do with where it was shown or revealed in the story. It finally shows up in the third act because Carl Gottlieb wrote it that way. And Steven only agreed to do the film if the shark was not fully revealed until the third act. @@moviesgalore9947
it was both, they both had written the harks big reveal to be in the third act, but they wanted the shark to appear more times then it actually did but it kept breaking down so Spielberg did what any master does and worked with what he got and instead focussed constructing the atmosphere to bolster the sharks presence,
Still one of my favorite lines from Jaws. “Your husbands alright mrs Brody, he’s fishing now, just got a couple of stripers, we’ll bring him home for dinner, we won’t be long, haven’t seen anything yet, over and out.”
I can't criticize anything in this masterpiece, but I always wondered why Quint would stop to pickup a radio call in the middle of those panicky circumstances. I'm sure he could call them back in 5 right after he deals with the giant great white that's been killing everyone?
Pretty close to that big but never as one that big ever been officially recorded. The biggest great white that was verified was 19 ft 6 in. Most of the great whites that were supposed to be like 20 plus feet were actually 17 ft or so. Deep blue is somewhere between 18 and 20 ft. There are claims of great whites over 20 ft but none have been accurately measured.
Not two weeks ago, I saw a video about a great white that big; 25ft! TRUE, they didn't get a measuring tape on it, but it was almost as big as the boat they were on! 32ft! I'd attach the video, but I don't remember the name. (I've been binge watching African Lions all weekend. No idea why these Jaws clips popped up! But I've loved the movie since I saw it in the theater!)
I've seen this movie many times. Even though I know the plot, there are scenes such as this that are still thrilling and suspenseful. Terrific acting by these seasoned performers, and the timing of everything in this scene is perfect.
Remember the first time I watched this movie, I was with my grandpa. He used to love this scene, especially because Brody's reaction always made him laugh so hard. Miss that golden days...
One of the best films ever made ! I own the Laserdisc and Blu Ray and when they re-released it in IMAX last September i took my son's 17 and 20 and even though we watched it countless times on my home theater. We had a complete blast ! It was quite the movie experience .
Saw a 8 foot hammerhead shark drifting around at the surface off Myrtle beach last month on a dolphin watch cruise. The captain said, "we're gonna need a bigger boat." That line is timeless. Jaws came out 47 years ago.
Fun facts: 1) Roy Scheider’s “bigger boat” line was actually an ad lib. Like most classic cinema, it worked so well that Spielberg left it in. It also explains why Robert Shaw is looking at him kind of perplexed. 2) They nicknamed the shark “Bruce” after Spielberg’s lawyer 3) Robert Shaw actually got drunk for the Indianapolis monologue, but was so intoxicated that he couldn’t do it. He thought that being drunk for the scene might improve the performance.
I read that after a few test showings, audiences were still screaming overtop of him dropping that line - so Spielberg re-edited it to put a few more seconds of space in between after he first sees it.
I was lucky enough to see this masterpiece on the big screen. They really should show more old classics at the cinema. Think of the generations who have missed out on films like this, or Aliens, T2, Jurassic Park, Close Encounters, Laurence of Arabia, The Shining, etc.
We went as a family to see Jaws the summer of ‘75 when it was a world phenomenon. I’ll never forget that day I was 10 years old and I was afraid to even get in the swimming pool after coming home from the theatre.
Always thought that this was one of the scariest scenes in the movie. Because they were looking for the shark, and then realized that all along it was right next to the boat watching them. JAWS is an ultimate classic.
What I love about this scene is the total tonal shift. Sure, we'd seen the Shark, but the last 10 or so minutes of the movie had been upbeat and lighthearted. But then, the shark appears and boom, back to dark, tense and sinister.
This movie reminds me of Close Encounters of the Third kind in many ways. The way Spielberg zooms in on ordinary people, the music, more than one person talking at once. I guess the directing style can carry over from one film to another.
Best movie ever..dad took me to ABC cinema Newcastle i was only 10..had nightmares about head popping out of boat for years..its still best film..proper actors. No cgi..good times x
It's so weird to think that this line, as piercingly iconic as it is now, was just another part of this whole movie. Jaws really created the "shark horror" genre, and that's an awesome legacy to leave behind.
This movie is beyond masterpiece. You can place this movie against the best and it would still hold its own in every way. There's literally not one bad thing about this movie. Its story, perfect, pace, perfect, casting, perfect, scoring and soundtrack.. perfect, cinematography, perfect, special effects.. perfect, and oh my god the acting... the acting.. just perfect. And this was Spielberg's 4th film.. and lets not even get into his fifth.. close encounters. This film was so great.. it cause a paradigm shift in the nations relationship with the ocean. Prior no one even thought about sharks, but forever after.. the first thing you think of with large bodies of water is sharks!!!.. hell if you a kid like i was, their were sharks in your pool, heck in your bathtub!!!! talk about mental damage after watching this film as a kid.
“You’re gonna need a bigger boat.” Careful what you wish for Scheider. Wait ‘till you see the SeaQuest. She’s a real beauty to behold, and more then a match for Bruce.
I got to see this movie for the first time on the big screen at a retro night. I was born in ‘02 but that won’t stop me from loving these older movies. Something about this movie, I just love the feel and energy of it.
When i was young, I viewed the premiere with my parents at a drive-in on Cape Cod. The next day, we went to a popular beach. Nobody entered the water. People were actually telling their children to not even go wading. Everyone was scared to death.
I can't believe after so many years, no shark movie comes close to this masterpiece
Every shark movie feels so rushed and piss poor
It's basically just an hour and a half of a Gore fest
Although I don't really mind them I really like watching people get eaten
But this one, this one is cinema. You actually get an experience worth your wild
The only other movie from this age I can say had effort put into it was The Meg
The shallows is pretty good. Best since jaws for sure
And most Shark movies were made for TV so their plot and CGI is Awful
And never will.

Today's Cartoons and movies are more about making sure they are "inclusive" than creating masterpieces.

His best movie by far was ET (followed closely by First Encounters of the 3rd Kind). This was a totally STUPID movie. I mean where's the HARPOON GUN those things are beyond NASTY! And they were invented in the 1800's to take out animals a LOT bigger than a Great White! Yeah one shot ANYWHERE and BOOM whatever it hits catches an immediate case of DEAD! And they even had lines attached to the business end so they could just reel whatever it hit right on in. I guess Spielberg never heard of those guns but tell you what I woulda had a couple of those nasty things onboard.
"FOREGROUND MY ASS!" is an underrated line. We where all Brody in that moment
Right? Like hell would anyone stand on the end just to get some cool pics for size
@@heebiejeebies8729 No kidding, this was war.
Robo: when Jaws first aired on TV in the fall of '79, "ass" was replaced with "eye". Moments earlier, "shìt" was replaced with "slop"

Hell yeah
Everything about JAWS is top notch. The cinematography was stellar, the editing was spot on, the cast couldn’t have been more on point, and the soundtrack was phenomenal. They truly don’t make ‘em like this anymore!
You could day that about a few of Spielbergs movies. Great director.
Literally the GOAT of films
Definition of a true masterpiece! I don’t think you could really find a flaw in this movie if you tried!
1:48 This here is one of the greatest villain introductions ever on screen! I know the shark has appeared a couple of times before this, but when this music plays and Bruce begins approaching, I get chills all the way up my spine!! The villain has come to challenge the heroes, in the same way as Dracula, after he claimed a number of victims. As Bruce circles the boat, it's his way of saying "Alright, you fools. You've brought it on yourselves!"
Bruce is done hiding. He WANTS them to see him!
It's at this point the heroes know that the battle has begun and they must stop him, even if it means sinking to the bottom of the sea!
Cannot be said better
Yeah the build up of the shark to this point throughout the film has led to this moment and makes the actual confrontation of what they’re facing
“a 25 ft 3 ton great white with malice and will”
all the more powerful and threatening,
You called down the thunder...well now you got it!

Finally it's here..
you're gonna need a real boat. that is a bathtub
@Thanks 🅥 dumb video and your not verified
Fun fact: when Jaws was first test-screened, everyone in the audience was so startled by the shark's appearance that they were still screaming when Schneider said: "You’re gonna need a bigger boat." Speilberg didn’t want real audiences to miss the line, so he & the editors extended the scene enough for people to settle back down and start paying attention again after seeing the shark; he also raised the volume of Schneider's voice for good measure.

I can't marvel enough at the way Spielberg edits John Williams music into his films. That harpsicord rake at 2:10 when you see the full size of the shark for the first time is epic no matter how many times you watch this.
Spielberg was smart to only suggest the shark until well over half the move was done. Makes the firs view that much scarier. I saw it in the theater when it first came out, and the entire audience jumped out of its collective skin.
The harpsicord rake is absolutely epic. Then when it all finally takes off to the "Gotta get to work" spine tingling every time.
1:47 the suspense building up, with the music playing, as the shark's slowly swimming towards them with the fin breaking the surface just gives me goosebumps like always.
“Stop playing with yourself Hooper!”😂😂😂😂
When it first aired on TV, the "with yourself" was removed. I recall it vividly because I taped it with an audio cassette recorder and listened to the movie endlessly. They also changed "Foreground my ass" to "Foreground my eye!"
@@chiefscheider Oh I’m sure they did.🙄🤨some channels like IFC show it with the so called”offensive”language and innuendos intact.
He sees all that "expensive gear" Hooper brings and says, "What are ya, some kind of half-ass astronaut? Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha!"
‘’You heard him, slow ahead’’
This scene combines, terror, comedy, adventure, and wonder all without changing the main setting, characters, or involving any large scale cgi bonanza of action to do so, it can simply be describe as just three dudes being startled by a big fish, but it’s so much more than that, God this movie is so amazing!
Three brilliant actors in a timeless classic.
Iconic line. I can rewatch this film over and over.

Prove it
Fun fact: this scene was rehearsed 20 times where the shark jumps out of the water. 19 times Schneider was ready for the shark, the 20th time he wasn't so the reaction was his natural reaction. That's the take that was used for the film.
Natural reactions are the best for suspense it makes it look more realistic 👌
It wasn't "rehearsed" per-se. They tried to film it 19 times, but "Bruce" the mechanical Shark didn't work the first 19 takes. It finally worked on the 20th take.
Another fun fact: the first time _Jaws_ was test-screened, everyone in the audience was so startled by the shark's appearance that they didn’t hear Schneider say: "You’re gonna need a bigger boat;" they were still screaming. Speilberg didn’t want real audiences to miss the line, so he & the editors extended the scene enough for people to settle back down and start paying attention again after seeing the shark; he also raised the volume of Schneider's voice for good measure.

I think the biggest shock sequence in there was bens boat where the head pops out. It scared the s**t out of me when I first seen it. But then again i was only about 8 years old
It's absolutely mind blowing how good this movie is. The most perfectly directed and edited film in cinema history.
And to think, it was a pain to film.
I completely agree! Jaws is my favorite movie of all time and I consider it a work of perfection!! Bruce is one of my favorite movie villains of all time as well! He's not a maniacal mad scientist or a crazed slasher villain with an arbitrary motive! He's just an animal with an overwhelming instinct to devour! He has no empathy, no reasoning, and no feelings whatsoever!
@@casesoutherland4175 I consider the shark an antihero. It's not trying to do anything other than survive; humans are unlucky to be a prey source.
Edited with what they had. It was supposed to go down way differently, but due to issues they had to change things up. Show less of the shark, build tension. What came of it shows why Speilberg is one of the masters - he made gold with what he could do.

Keep your thoughts to yourself
this is the most perfectly cast movie in film history. inclusive of the music, the location.. Everything about this movie is PERFECT!!!
Could not agree more!!
You can have all the modern technology when making the latest films but nothing has ever come close to beating this absolute classic..... its still as good today as it was back in 1975 with 3 great actors and an unbelievable performance by robert shaw
The fact that Robert Mattey's mechanical shark barely worked actually helped Jaws work so well as a horror movie.
As a shark, Bruce is supposed to be elusive and mysterious. A massive predator that can strike out of nowhere with ferocity.
It's a good thing that the shark is rarely seen because it really escalates the tension.
JAWS is not a Horror movie. Not even close. It's an adventure movie and Spielberg directed it as such. Spielberg himself made it very clear that Jaws is not a Horror movie.
Bruce was never scheduled to be used for the beach scenes though. They were all filmed May to early July 1974.
Bruce was not scheduled to be used until the Orca based scenes.
The shark is hidden in the first half of the film on purpose.
The very first shark incident filmed was the pier/holiday roast scene. This was filmed in late May, in just 3 ft of water. They never had any intention of using Bruce for it.
Far more of Bruce was supposed to be shown during the Orca scenes but not for the beach scenes.
The first half of Jaws was filmed more or less on schedule. It was the Orca based scenes where it all went wrong.
👍
@@lyndoncmp5751 And Bruce gets shit on unfairly. The biggest delays were weather and boats ruining the horizon
@@lyndoncmp5751 If I remember correctly, they were originally planning to show the shark in full when it attacks Alex Kintner (there's a photo where you see the shark launch its head out to eat him) but they thought that was too disturbing
The elusiveness of the shark was in the script it was not a result of it not working. The use of the barrels without seeing the shark was in the screenplay
Jaws is a masterpiece. One of the all-time great films in cinematic history, and in my opinion, Spielberg's best. It lacks the syrupy sentimentality common to many of his later movies.
Now knowing the real life tension between Dreyfuss and Shaw you see how seamless the tension between Hooper and Quint came so naturally.
The fact that Roy scheider wasn’t expecting the shark to rise at that moment and thus being a genuine reaction makes the scene even more iconic
His reaction shot was filmed 2 weeks later
I hate when people try to create fake “facts” about movies to somehow make the scene “better” in their eyes. Usually it’s centered around wanting an actor’s reaction to be genuine or real, like it would somehow validate the scene.
It’s called ACTING you big doofus. and the scene of Roy jumping back and walking would have been different takes done over several days.
@@JetConvoy Fyi. Roy's famous reaction shot was filmed two weeks after the shark surfacing. People seem to think that what they're watching is one continuous moment. When they shoot his reaction shot the shark isnt even involved
@@roquefortfiles He's agreeing with you you numpty.
The fact that Roy scheier wasn't expecting the shark to rise that moment and thus
One of my favorite scenes of all time, in particular the excerpt from 2:08 to 2:24; the shot of the shark under the boat and the three of them watching in awe coupled with the music, and that little exchange between Hooper and Quint.
But every Time, i ask myself where is the caudal fin...
Well, that s what I call a great movie. Terrifying but great. A masterpiece no question.
The acting in a word is amazing! Additionally, the camera angles and choice of shots (editing) are impeccable. Lastly, the soundtrack by Mr. John Williams is perfect and moves the film along. "Jaws" in my book is among the greatest films ever made!
Spielberg himself once said that the music by John Williams was responsible for 50% of the films success.
The amount of storytelling in five minutes here is unreal. Easily my favorite scene in movie history.
‘ 2:29 I love how Quint and Hooper jump into action because this is what they do, and Brody is wondering if they lost their minds. You can see it on his face. 😂’
At this point, we were used to knowing the shark was coming when we heard the theme but this one came out of nowhere
True !
You're going to need a bigger boat. Such a priceless movie quote.
It's almost like he's toying with the heroes. They're in HIS territory.
That's because Jaws ate the orchestra 🦈
Köpek balığı ısırır
I love how Shaw calmly says, "25....three tons on him." Brody and even Hooper were blown away but Quint, with a lifetime at sea, reacted differently. Robert Shaw did an amazing job expressing expertise and knowledge as Quint.
Everyone talks about Brody’s reaction to seeing the shark for the first time, but not enough people talk about Quint’s reaction. This guy has been through so much (as we find out later in the film), to the point that nothing could surprise him. But look at his face at 1:57. He’s clearly at a loss for words. As an audience member, this is when we know that this is not gonna be a walk in the park, when the seasoned professional looks thunderstruck by a creature he’s had so much experience hunting over the years.
Very well spoken, and absolutely right!
Great observation. I can’t figure out whether he’s phased by the sharks’s size. Or whether he’s excited, even turned on, by his biggest challenge yet. If he’s phased, he shakes it off pretty quick. And gets straight into war mode

The bantering between these 3 is endless,timeless and legendary.Like enemies and then the best of friends that sound freaked u amazing at times when Jaws was around it's perfectly done.Brody is right they needed a bigger boat Orca to small,Hooper it's a 20 footer,Quint no 25,3 tonnes of him
When Dreyfuss stands up and races down the ladder and the music takes off to start the shark hunt.. oh man!. Shivers every time and I've seen this movie hundreds of times. They absolutely nailed it. A classic
No line seemed contrived, which is why the characters seem so authentic and relatable
And Hooper can't take much abuse any longer with Quint.So bossy i get that everyday at Home, Play and Work sometimes how much i can take it any longer in life thru the good and bad.And Brody says why don't we drive him to Shore instead of him taking us out to Sea

Growing up yea it was suspenseful. Now watching it 😂 it's funny
No one has ever recaptured the suspense like Spielberg. Also, he understood the secret to the film wasn’t playing his hand, and revealing the monster at every turn. He kept the shark “under wraps” till the last act. To make up for that, he really fleshed out the characters and made audiences care about their journey and fates.
The fact they didn't reveal the shark until the third act was in the script. It was not a function of the shark not working. It was a function of good writing.
@@roquefortfiles No - when the shark kept breaking down Spielberg realized he had to make the best of that problem and it turned out to be a blessing in disguise to keep the shark hidden for as long as possible was great.
@@roquefortfiles then Spielberg has been lying for the last 48 years he always says "oh I got lucky when the shark didn't work it forced me to go the classic suspense route where the monster that you don't see is scarier I wanted the audience to imagine just how big this shark is and I was able to do that because the damn thing kept breaking down it never worked when we wanted it to work" - this is what Spielberg has said hundreds of times since 1975 so he must be a liar saying this to make himself look brilliant which he was and is.
No. No entirely!! The shark not working had nothing to do with when it shows up in the movie. Its "Big reveal" in the chum scene in the third act of the film (Here) was in the script. It had nothing to do with the fact that it kept breaking down. The shark being kept "Under wraps" until the third act was a function of GOOD WRITING and a testament to how good the script was. They kept it off screen to ratchet up the tension. The fact that "Bruce" barely worked had nothing to do with where it was shown or revealed in the story. It finally shows up in the third act because Carl Gottlieb wrote it that way. And Steven only agreed to do the film if the shark was not fully revealed until the third act. @@moviesgalore9947
it was both, they both had written the harks big reveal to be in the third act, but they wanted the shark to appear more times then it actually did
but it kept breaking down so Spielberg did what any master does and worked with what he got
and instead focussed constructing the atmosphere to bolster the sharks presence,
everything abnout this movie is perfect, the timing the music, the direction, it's just perfect!!!!
Still one of my favorite lines from Jaws.
“Your husbands alright mrs Brody, he’s fishing now, just got a couple of stripers, we’ll bring him home for dinner, we won’t be long, haven’t seen anything yet, over and out.”
That was Stephen Spielberg’s voice too on the request.
I can't criticize anything in this masterpiece, but I always wondered why Quint would stop to pickup a radio call in the middle of those panicky circumstances. I'm sure he could call them back in 5 right after he deals with the giant great white that's been killing everyone?
This is a masterpiece of a excellent movie.
What adds to this movie is realism, sharks this size do exist, and can go dark side, oceans are terrifying and beautiful at the same time.
Pretty close to that big but never as one that big ever been officially recorded. The biggest great white that was verified was 19 ft 6 in. Most of the great whites that were supposed to be like 20 plus feet were actually 17 ft or so. Deep blue is somewhere between 18 and 20 ft. There are claims of great whites over 20 ft but none have been accurately measured.
Not two weeks ago, I saw a video about a great white that big; 25ft! TRUE, they didn't get a measuring tape on it, but it was almost as big as the boat they were on! 32ft! I'd attach the video, but I don't remember the name.
(I've been binge watching African Lions all weekend. No idea why these Jaws clips popped up! But I've loved the movie since I saw it in the theater!)
Robert Shaw was a fabulous actor
One of my all time favourite films,,,🙂

I've seen this movie many times. Even though I know the plot, there are scenes such as this that are still thrilling and suspenseful. Terrific acting by these seasoned performers, and the timing of everything in this scene is perfect.
Remember the first time I watched this movie, I was with my grandpa. He used to love this scene, especially because Brody's reaction always made him laugh so hard. Miss that golden days...
One of the best films ever made ! I own the Laserdisc and Blu Ray and when they re-released it in IMAX last September i took my son's 17 and 20 and even though we watched it countless times on my home theater. We had a complete blast ! It was quite the movie experience .
The scene where they see the full length of the shark always gives me goosebumps!
Saw a 8 foot hammerhead shark drifting around at the surface off Myrtle beach last month on a dolphin watch cruise. The captain said, "we're gonna need a bigger boat." That line is timeless. Jaws came out 47 years ago.
It's a shame that he still got the quote wrong
@@thickerconstrictor9037 Yup
I saw a 12-footer in Naples Florida underneath the end of the pier. That was a rather humbling experience of how little a match you are for nature.
@@paravecchiavince9685 That's big. Probably a Tiger.
@@thickerconstrictor9037 Well if the captain of the boat had said "YOU'RE gonna need a bigger boat" it wouldn't make much sense would it
The cinematography and acting made it good. John Williams made it a classic.
Fun facts:
1) Roy Scheider’s “bigger boat” line was actually an ad lib. Like most classic cinema, it worked so well that Spielberg left it in. It also explains why Robert Shaw is looking at him kind of perplexed.
2) They nicknamed the shark “Bruce” after Spielberg’s lawyer
3) Robert Shaw actually got drunk for the Indianapolis monologue, but was so intoxicated that he couldn’t do it. He thought that being drunk for the scene might improve the performance.
I read that after a few test showings, audiences were still screaming overtop of him dropping that line - so Spielberg re-edited it to put a few more seconds of space in between after he first sees it.
I was lucky enough to see this masterpiece on the big screen. They really should show more old classics at the cinema. Think of the generations who have missed out on films like this, or Aliens, T2, Jurassic Park, Close Encounters, Laurence of Arabia, The Shining, etc.
Most memorable quote from the movie. When you’re going against a predator of the sea, always need a bigger boat.

We went as a family to see Jaws the summer of ‘75 when it was a world phenomenon. I’ll never forget that day I was 10 years old and I was afraid to even get in the swimming pool after coming home from the theatre.
The score of this film is exceptional. The universe smiled on the entire affair.

other's have tried, but this still remains as THE best Shark movie still today
One of the greatest scenes in all of cinema.
Everything is amazing. My favorite is the building of suspension when he's tying the barrel. The music, Quints expressions,.. awesome
Always thought that this was one of the scariest scenes in the movie. Because they were looking for the shark, and then realized that all along it was right next to the boat watching them. JAWS is an ultimate classic.
What I love about this scene is the total tonal shift. Sure, we'd seen the Shark, but the last 10 or so minutes of the movie had been upbeat and lighthearted. But then, the shark appears and boom, back to dark, tense and sinister.
LOVE the quality , this scene & the whole movie !!! 👍🏻🦈👍🏻
Stop playing with yourself Hopper 😅 classic line
This movie reminds me of Close Encounters of the Third kind in many ways. The way Spielberg zooms in on ordinary people, the music, more than one person talking at once. I guess the directing style can carry over from one film to another.
