Jaws
A film by Steven Spielberg
w/ Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw
A killer shark is terrorizing vacationers at Amity Island, and a trio of shark-hunters takes to the high seas in pursuit. John Williams won an Oscar for his ominous score, and 50 years later, the film continues to make audiences think twice about going in the water.
The fast-moving 124-minute film engenders enormous suspense as the shark attacks a succession of people; the creature is not even seen for about 82 minutes, and a subjective camera technique makes his earlier forays excruciatingly terrifying all the more for the invisibility
