Steven Spielberg’s Jaws (1975) is more than just a film. It’s a cinematic milestone that changed Hollywood forever. Often credited as the first-ever summer blockbuster, the movie not only terrified audiences worldwide but also redefined the thriller genre with its masterful suspense-building and groundbreaking special effects. Adapted from Peter Benchley’s novel, Jaws follows a small beach town terrorized by a great white shark, forcing Chief Brody (Roy Scheider), shark hunter Quint (Robert Shaw), and marine biologist Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) to take the battle to the sea.
Beyond its technical brilliance, Spielberg’s meticulous attention to detail was crucial in shaping the film’s atmosphere. From John Williams’ haunting score to the strategic use of color, every creative choice added to Jaws’ immersive horror. In fact, Spielberg made an unusual request to his production designer.
