Jaws Factoids:

• Although the film is set in midsummer, producers began filming in early May 1974 to avoid an actors’ strike that was scheduled to begin July 1.
• Jaws was marred with so many technical problems that the originally scheduled 55-65 day shoot ballooned into 159 days, not counting post-production.
• Most highly anticipated films were released around Christmastime, back then, but Spielberg took so long filming that the film had a summer release date, which was traditionally reserved for low-end films.
• Townspeople of Martha’s Vineyard were paid $64 each for playing extras who ran across the beach and screamed during the shark attack scene.
