THIS SEASON’S THEME: FIRST FEATURES
Welcome to episode 007. Ashley and Gary are joined by Theatre and TV Freelancer Jenn Mackie to discuss the hugely successful first ever blockbuster JAWS. The film was the first major motion picture to be shot on the ocean, and had a troubled production, going over budget and past schedule but became a worldwide classic.
SYNOPSIS
When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and grizzled ship captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature.
