Product Description
Steven Spielberg takes us behind the cameras for the making of a classic movie.
Jaws stunned the world when it hit the screens in 1975, breaking all existing box office records and grossing $470 million dollars worldwide. Terror gripped the globe as a 25-foot great white shark captured the world’s attention, and made sure no one ever felt safe going into the water again.

With many happy memories and anecdotes, this programme offers a fresh new perspective on one of the greatest movies of our time.

• Discover the true story behind one of the most iconic movies ever made.

I am a huge fan of JAWS and was very keen to get hold of this new DVD. It does not really offer anything new, that has not been covered in previous "making of" films, but it is still a very interesting look at how this blockbuster film got made and the myriad problems the cast & crew encountered. We get contributions from Spielberg, Richard Dreyfuss, Susan Backlinie, Lee Fierro & other cast & crew members.

i was realy disapointed with this release it was quite boring and didnt realy tell me eanything i didnt already know dont let the front cover fool you it dosent show the actual making of the shark just photos so if you own the 30th anniversary dvd and you have watched the documentary i wouldnt bother buying this dvd.
A must for any jaws fan....interviews with production and stars of the film with a fantastic behind the scenes look at this classic flick
