Description

Take a bite out of this week's episode on JAWS!  We are joined again this week by guest  Michael Moroz. Together we unpack this 1975 horror classic, the first ever summer blockbuster. Steven Speilberg's masterful direction keeps you on your toes through the entire movie, strategically hiding the shark until it can make maximum impact. The political themes in this movie of the mayor wanting to keep the beach open in order to protect business above people seems more relevant now more than ever? (Sounds very 2020) So let's dive deep into the waters of Amity…if you dare. 



Along with the film itself, these were some of the references I used in the creation of this episode
