What makes this opening so intense is that we don’t see the shark at all. Spielberg leaves the audience to interpret what’s happening beneath the surface of the water through the sharks point of view, only seeing Chrissie being dragged around, the intense music indicating how brutal this beast is going to be. JAWS will forever be, one of the greatest movies ever made!👏🏻

RIP Susan Backlinie
The most terrifying opening scene in movie history.

[honney]

One of the most powerful scene that ever made in a movie. A lot of people got scared to go to the open water due to this scene.

[labyrinthmind]

This actress had less than 4 minutes of screen time and delivered one of the most iconic scenes in movie history. Props.

[benhammel]

One of the best openings in movie history.

[EivNordic]

RIP Susan Backlinie 😢 You delivered one of the best and most memorical opening scenes of all time in one of the best movies ever made!😎

[SLAYERSWINE]

JAWS will ALWAYS be my all time favorite movie. Just the whole experience seeing it in '75 at 10 years old in the theater is something I will never forget & cherish until I die...

[jdtractorman]

The movie that started the "summer block busters". An amazing movie even after all these years. Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, and Richard Dreyfuss were outstanding in this movie.

[Angela-wolv]

Amazing acting from this actress. The, "Oh God help me, it hurts!” sends chills up my spine every time.

[megacrashthehedgehog]

I think we don't give enough credit to Susan Backlinie, the actress who played Chrissie. Her screams still send chills down my spine.

[jnsky]

70's & 80's were magical decades.
Hasn't been the same since.

[AustinNGrayson]

Susan Backlinie 100% delivered one of the best death performances in cinematic history. I get teary eyed every time I watch it. Her hyperventilating after the first bite and then her pleading for help. And finally in her last moment pleading to god. It’s so disturbing and heartbreaking. This and Casey Becker’s death in Scream’s opening scene are the two death scenes in the horror genre that always break me.

[myenemysenemy]

Who’d have thunk, 45 years ago, that a film about a great white shark would be regarded as one of the best movies of all time?

[douglandfair]

RIP Lady. Thank you for helping make THE WORLD scared of the water.

[flixsymmetry]

Saw this in the theater when it came out. I was 9. I’m now a police chief and Brody’s pic has a place on my office wall...

Hooper: That's a 20 footer.
Quint: 25. Three tons of him.

[VRmission]

In most horror movies you usually don't care about the "first victim". Someone has to die set the stage for everything that follows. But Chrissie's death is so SERIOUS, so brutal, and her desperate cries for help so despairing. You can't help but feel for her. Spielberg did a great job of capturing this moment, it put the movie goer right in the middle of it. The only other shark film I ever respected for it's visceral attack scenes was the Shallows.

[johnhoblock]

When she's pulled away from the buoy and cries out "Oh God, I'm gonna die!" it just wrenches you. She did an amazing job with such a small part that it's still iconic and always will be.

[PeterButterworth-yv]

Spielberg GENIUS at work.
The camera angles..the music..sound effects..

[patrickkyteler]

What makes this scene so effective is the sheer brutality. You don't see the shark but between the "music", her screams, and thrashing, you KNOW the woman is being ripped open by that Great White. The lines "God help me! It hurts! It burns!! OMG, I'm going to die!" says it all. I saw this film as a kid and I still don't like going into the ocean because of it.
