  • Summary

  • In the summer of 1975, Amity Island was terrorized by a serial killer...who happened to be a shark. That's how Rachel Howzell Hall, author of These Toxic Things, sees it. In this episode, she explains how Jaws, Steven Spielberg and Peter Benchley's classic tale of a shark running amok is, at its heart, a crime story. I gotta say, I was moved. https://www.rachelhowzell.com (Connect with Rachel Howzell Hall) Olivia Rutigliano, LitHub, July, 2020 - https://lithub.com/on-the-endless-symbolism-of-the-best-summer-movie-ever-made-jaws/ (On the Endless Symbolism of the Best Summer Movie Ever Made: Jaws (And How It Owes Its Dark Soul to Moby Dick)) Jessica Beebe, ScreenRant, September, 2020 -https://screenrant.com/jaws-movie-biggest-differences-peter-benchley-book/ ( Jaws: The Biggest Differences Between the Book and Steven Spielberg’s Movie) Chris Morgan, Yardbarker, November, 2021 - https://www.yardbarker.com/entertainment/articles/20_facts_you_might_not_know_about_jaws/s1__35148047#slide_1 (Twenty Facts You Might Not Know About Jaws) (This one’s a bit shaky) Maria Puente, USA Today, August, 2018 - https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2018/08/07/jaws-mystery-did-unidentified-cape-cod-murder-victim-appear-scene/923860002/ (Jaws Mystery:  Did Long Unknown ‘Lady of the Dunes’ Murder Victim Appear in Movie Scene?) https://www.thelongshadowpodcast.com (TLS on the web) https://twitter.com/LongShadowPod (TLS on Twitter) https://www.instagram.com/longshadowpod/ (TLS on Instagram) https://www.facebook.com/longshadowpod/ (TLS on Facebook) https://ginnyrobbins.square.site (Ginny Robbins (original artwork)) https://ryanculwell.com/home (Ryan Culwell (theme music))
