Jaws

In this iconic thriller, a small New England beach town is terrorized by a massive great white shark, prompting the local police chief, a marine biologist, and a seasoned shark hunter to embark on a perilous quest to stop the creature. The film, directed by Steven Spielberg, is renowned for its suspenseful storytelling and groundbreaking special effects. Starring Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, and Richard Dreyfuss, it became a cultural phenomenon and won three Academy Awards, including Best Original Score.
