Jaws
Matt Hooper is the biggest diva ever, I love him.
But here’s a list of the most HORRIFIC parts of this film, because watching it in the cinema last year changed me fundamentally even though I’ve been watching this film since I was like 8:
-the rapid breathing Chrissy does when she realises what’s going on
-the shark flipping over as it eats the little boy
-that mother fucking jump scare with the dead guy in the boat. Gets me literally every time even though I spend the whole time bracing myself for it.
-watching the shark just under the surface as it bites off that man’s leg
-Quints monologue.
-Hooper having to wait in the cage, knowing that it sank an entire boat and that he stands no chance. Then being sneak attacked.
-Quint being bitten in half below the waist by a shark, just like he was so scared of back in 1945
I love this film. Happy belated 50th birthday, Jaws.
