I'm a little late to the party, but...
Jaws. Worth a watch? People seem to rave about it.

Went to see I, Tonya yesterday. I love the interview approach. Really good look at a story I didn't think I had any interest in since it happened.

Wildly overrated. Villain has no backstory.

Re: What movies are you watching?
I think Jaws is a good movie. I think it's vastly overrated but it's still something you should see for yourself. A lot of people connect to it in a big way, so it has something profound going for it.

ET is my big Spielberg movie. I was kidding about Jaws being overrated but it never bit me really.
Eh?
Seriously though. That said I don’t think I’ve ever watched it as an adult. So maybe a rewatch is due.

Watched it for the first time in decades a little while ago. It still holds up and you can see how this was the movie that started it all.

Re: What movies are you watching?
Jaws is impeccably written, directed, shot, scored, and acted. It is an impossibly perfect specimen of cinema craftsmanship. It’s a marvel. It’s a miracle. It deserves every accolade it gets.

It does have that one pretty epic monologue that I love with all my heart.

Who’s the Irish guy again. Robert Shaw?
Dreyfus was on a chat show here raving about him recently. Apparently he was the real deal but never acted before or after that? Not sure I believe it.

No role better than Jaws though I’m betting.
