"I have to go with Jaws. It's the best movie I've seen."
————————————————
Yeah, It's My Number 1 Favorite Steven Spielberg Movie out of all of the Movies that he has made.
LOL, I realize that this is a pretty crazy and foolish thing to admit but "
JAWS
" is actually 1 of several Movies that I have watched so many times over the years that I now actually know the whole entire Movie line for line. -

I like all those films, but
Jaws
has to take the cake. There is something reverential and special about the film and its construction.
Close Encounters
is reverential, but brazenly so and doesn't quite have the timing of
Jaws
. I can see CE boring some, yet in
Jaws's
quieter moments, it still has the power to resonate and compel completely.
If there is a perceived negative,
Jaws
did malign sharks, which is just a natural creature of its habitat. All of this can be forgiven though, because the film also paved the way in searching for more understanding of these menacing sea creatures.
Norman! What did you put in my tea?
