Could anybody please tell me where Susan is in this? How does she parody her Jaws scene?

She appears in the opening of the film. She is a Polar Bears member, who disrobes at the beach early in the morning and goes out into the middle of the ocean, naked, for a swim. As she does the backstroke, the opening of the "Jaws" theme is heard and she begins to get tugged into the ocean, much like she did in "Jaws", only a shark does not eat her - she winds up grasping her body onto a submarine periscope. It's a great hats off to "Jaws", as the entire movie is chock full of other classic bits such as that. I advise to go rent it immediately!

Is this the only Jaws parody?

I thought Denise Cheshire was the girl from Jaws. She is credited as swimming girl.

Looks as though the relevant post has been deleted, but in fact it's NOT Susan Backlinie. Spielberg wanted to cast her but was unable.

Where do you have this info from?
Uh, from my own faulty brain!
In other words: I was mistaken, sorry. Just a coupla days ago, I watched the "Making Of" DVD (for the 4th or 5th time), and when Spielberg says "I wanted to cast Susan Backlinie", I must've mentally added the "but she was unavailable" myself, for whatever reason.
Anyway, carry on
