"Jaws: The Inside Story" on Biography Channel

[azharrison]

I watched this last night and wondering if anyone else caught it? Fantastic. It went into the difficulties shooting on water, the problems they faced with the mechanical shark, conflict within the cast, last minute screenplay changes and how those elements completely changed the dynamics of the film.

This movie went waaay over budget and schedule, and there were many threats from Universal to replace Spielberg to finish the project. Imagine how that would have effected his career?

I saw the last half, it was interesting how everything came together out of complete chaos. makes me wonder if the shark actually worked, it may have been a different movie.
