On this special episode of The Projection Booth we are looking at Steven Spielberg's Jaws (1975). Based on the novel by Peter Benchley, Jaws is the story of Sheriff Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) -- a former New York City cop who’s moved to the idyllic island community of Amity. All is going well in his white picket world until a Great White Shark picks the waters around Amity as a feeding ground.
Jamie Benning (Filmumentaries) and Chris Sasser (Shark City) join Mike to discuss the film that defined what a "blockbuster summer hit" was. Screenwriter Carl Gottlieb (The Jaws Log) and John LeMay (Jaws Unmade) discuss the making of Jaws as well as the many sequels, rip-offs, and inspired films in Jaws's wake.
