Poll question: Jaws

A question.

1. The shark, being a shark, doesn't have a name. The model's name is Bruce.

3. Fourth option

It's the name of a book that was made into a movie. Been ages since I read it but I remember the first bit about underwater critters was positively fascinating.

4. Name of the book and the movie.

5. It's the name of the movie.

Then, in the shitty sequels, which don't count, there's the general assumption that the shark's name is Jaws!.

But that doesn't really count.

12. all i know is that it's a really great movie- I had never seen the whole thing

until recently. The acting and less- sensational style (almost a classic flatness) of it is wonderful. Not at all what I had expected. I came away even more impressed with Spielberg's directorial and shot-planning ability than I was before.


Then we watched Duel - that was wild as well.
