To celebrate the release of Steven Spielberg’s Jaws on Blu-ray, the New Empress Magazine team have put together a special flashback film about the shark that would not die. New Empress Magazine editor Helen Cox takes a look back at some of the reasons why Jaws is a timeless classic and talks about her favourite scene in the film.
Special thanks go to Conor Dorsett for producing top-notch concept art. To Benjamin Everingham for directing and producing the film and to 1st AD Richard Sanchez. All clips courtesy of Universal Studios.

Very nice and like the personnel touch from editor rather than reeling off the same 20 facts about Jaws.
One other question where is that lake?
So nice of you to comment Paul. We filmed in Rickmansworth – far north London. Well worth a visit on a sunny day.
Thanks will look it up.
Really enjoyed I hope this is the first of many.
Hi, Helen, and nice to see you again – you look as though the summer has been a tonic to you!
I really enjoyed this little commentary on this film and related ones, and look forward to further such video pieces from New Empress – thanks, Ap.
Loved this video a nice new angle for New Empress.
Though I must admit I like Helen’s witty comments on the Jaws sequels http://youtu.be/orOCXjPykOs
The New Empress team should post it as story so it can be shared with more viewers!
Keep up the good work guys!
Great stuff. Really Enjoyed both videos.
Keep up the good work!
