Movies from those days had a unique feeling and a special magic that is hard to find today. Wonderful to see the story behind this legendary movie.
I was a young kid. It terrified me!!! I was scared to swim in a pool!!! I couldn't swim in ocean at all after seeing it!!!
I'm 25 and I love Jaws because it's a great film with great characters. James Cameron thinks its nostalgia. Both of my college and high school swim teams watched it all of the time.
This is the film that gave me traumatic feeling each time I go swimming. I always panic when the beach or pool is above my head, I am imagining there's the face of that "JAW" behind me..
One of the greatest monologues in the history of cinema.
I still hear that bass line music when I swim in the ocean
Probably the best movie ever.
Hahaha old but gold
I have seen it back when it came out like 3 times, then on VCR and TV probably 100x then on BluRay probably another 20 times. But I could not resist seeing the 50th anniversary version on an IMAX screen. The theater was packed and it was just as fun as the day I first saw it. My #1 favorite movie!
One of the all-time best ever. I was 8 years old and I don't want to admit this but I had to tell my grandmother to put the night light on in the hallway cuz I had nightmares lol
Great video! Love the Steven Spielberg commentary.

I remember watching it in the theater when I was 16 in Calgary. Had to wait a few weeks to get tickets as the shows were selling out so quickly.
And it had the best dialogs ever.
Maybe they were more lenient back then, but I think it's impressive that the studio stuck with Spielberg through completion. Here's a very young, barely known director, doing things that had never been done, WAY over budget and schedule, and yet they didn't bail on him. What an achievement, and what a film!
I have seen all the Jaws movies more times than I could count, and I still enjoy them every time.
Excellent documentary 🎉
If kids from now know about jaws that means this was the best movie ever
Saw it at 8..didn't go in the ocean for 2 years.😂 60 now and watch it all the time to remember those days.
All I know is w h en that head popped up behind the glass on the sunken sailboat I about literally jumped out of my seat!😅
