it's not about the shark

Jaws, the 1975 movie directed by Steven Spielberg, is considered to be one of the greatest movie ever made. of course the movie is about a giant man-eating shark. but the shark doesn't even appear in the most scariest parts of the movie. in fact, the shark doesn't appear at all until almost at the end of the movie. how did Spielberg make a shark movie without a shark? #bcc

"the less you see, the more you get because that invited the audience to come to the movie bringing their collective imaginations, and their imaginations helped me make that film a success" Steven Spielberg, Jaws
