A wonderful collection of interviews, clips and cast recountings of those hard, hot days on Martha's Vineyard in 1974 THE SHARK IS STILL WORKING offers up the most in depth and loving look at a film that if you know it or not has probably changed your life in some way.

I don't think that anyone could argue the point that Spielberg's little shark movie has created a swell that to this day filmmakers still ride the wake of. THE SHARK IS STILL WORKING picks up on the set of the film when calls could be heard over radios carried by the crew and those calls seemed to always be saying, “The shark is not working, repeat, the shark is not working. Through a series of conversations with the folks that were there we learn all about the trials and tribulations of working on the open sea with a huge non working mechanical shark and a bunch of hot, tired actors and crew members. Great stuff. Tons and tons of never before scene photos and videos and well quite frankly just about all the info you could ever possibly ask for about this ground breaking film.

This presentation comes at you in a 2 disc set. Disc one is titled THE IMPACT and Disc Two is titled THE LEGACY and are pretty much self explanatory. Disc one goes into not only the making but also the advertising and marketing of the film. Really, a lot could be learned by some folks out there today. The way JAWS was marketed is the way all films should be marketed.

Hosted by the films star Roy Scheider and featuring the input of just about every other person involved in the film THE SHARK IS STILL WORKING represents documentary film making at its finest.

An absolute must see disc.

Ah yes, THE SHARK IS STILL WORKING and truth be told for most of us it never stopped.

The project has an excellent website that features clips and reviews and all kinds of other great stuff. You're going to want to click here and go check that out right now.
