Old BBC feature -- On The Set of Jaws

#1 Post by Paul MacLean »

Here's an interesting bit from the BBC archives -- Steven Spielberg on the set of Jaws...

I'd love to know who chose the music they used for the opening shots! :?

I love this segment!

It's on the Blu-Ray and the last DVD edition -- though they removed the M*A*S*H music and had someone "loop" the BBC host's narration for the duration the music plays. He says exactly the same words, but they trimmed a few seconds and dubbed over it so you can't hear the M*A*S*H theme. Someone didn't want to pay the license (and really who could blame them? lol).

I didn't even realize it was on the DVD / Blu-ray! I always mean to watch special feature, but never seem to get around to it! :oops:
