Jaws Memorabilia!
The box-office smash that created the event-movie mentality in Hollywood and to which all theme-park-ride movies get compared--and it still makes you think twice before a trip to the beach. A seaside community (it was filmed on Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts) succumbs to terror, and writes off a tourist season, when a great white shark seems to target the town's beaches for a hunting ground. Local sheriff Scheider joins with a bespectacled academic (Dreyfuss) and a salty-dog fisherman (Shaw) in an Ahab-like hunt for the monster. A young Spielberg (all of 27) stage-manages the bounding main action, and a recalcitrant mechanical shark named Bruce, to produce a modern classic of archetypal terror. Williams's score can still evoke shivers. Based on the best-selling book by Benchley. Followed by three sequels. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Picture.
It is 11" x 14", bevel-cut double matted, framed under glass and ready to hang. The 8" x 10" photo is offset with an additional 4" x 6" photo, and coupled with a bio that lists pertinent facts.
