Tim Vine JAWS 50th Anniversary Interview
Interview available Thursday 28 August on YouTube, Spotify and Apple Podcasts
In this 50th anniversary special, The Daily Jaws sits down with actor, writer, and comedian Tim Vine to talk about the film that has fascinated him for decades. Tim recalls first seeing Jaws on TV in the early 80s, then later catching it in the cinema where he couldn’t resist telling the audience, “This is the best film ever made.”
He explains why the film rewards repeat viewings, from tiny background details only visible on the big screen, to the moments of improvisation that became iconic.
The conversation covers Carl Gottlieb’s sharp script, the influence of Verna Fields’ editing, and the small family scenes that give the film its weight. Tim also talks about his favourite behind-the-scenes stories, the use of local Martha’s Vineyard actors, and how chance decisions helped create a classic.
And just when Tim thought it was safe to sit down for a podcast, a surprise guest stops by to lay down the law.
This episode is a lively mix of comedy, craft, and nostalgia for the movie that changed cinema forever.
