It’s a near perfect movie to me. The underwater scene and the place crash scene are fantastic. I love it so much

I saw Jaws in the theater this weekend. It was sick.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

While im recording a podcast about Brian DePalma i cant help to think about how i adore his work as a kid, and how much of a footnote he became with time.

I havent seen his last two movies and the last movie i enjoyed from him was Mission To Mars, which is, lets say, uneven at best.

He was very stylish and I still like his American gialli, but overall there just wasn’t much substance there.

Also kind of funny that the last semi good movies from both De Palma and John Carpenter involved Mars and were made around the same time
