Over at 1848 Media, Julian Palmer takes a deep dive into one of most iconic moments of Jaws, Steven Spielberg’s 1975 suspense-thriller. In the process, Palmer delivers a truly intriguing look at audience engagement and how Steven Spielberg has excelled at manipulating theater-goers in a way that is still unparalleled by any living director.*

The best part: A direct quote from director Alfred Hitchcock about the Jaws director. And if anyone should know about luring in viewers, it is the “master of suspense” himself.

Total movie geek heaven.

Enjoy.
