You can pick up hundreds of DVDs for a round-pound each - it doesn't matter. It's never about quantity, it's about quality. A-Z is my way of going through my collection, from A-Z, and understanding why I own the films ... or you can tell me why I should sell 'em
#105 - Jaws
Why did I buy it?
Why did I buy it?
At the time I bought it way back in 2000, I could not remember the time I had watched it. I knew it was an important film, but I could not vividly recall the details of the film. By purchasing it, I could rewatch it and refresh my memory.
Why do I still own it?
Obviously, since I bought the film, I have watched it many times. I have even watched the film at my school with some of the kids during a Film Club. They enjoyed it, but not half as much as I expected. I have a feeling that the slow-tension that builds throughout the film was a little bit too slow for the kids. I only hope they appreciate the idea of the shark swimming underneath their feet when they are swimming about on their summer holidays. A must to own, and I have a feeling it is a must on Blu-Ray when it arrives ... the stunning
A steal of a purchase at the $5 bin. It's amazing Spielberg didn't get nominated.
ReplyDeleteJaws on Blu-ray...when is that happening? Can't wait.
