☆ Review: A Bloodless Postscript to ‘Jaws’ in ‘The Shark Is Broken’
  + stars: | 2023-08-10 | by ( Jesse Green | More About Jesse Green | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +1 min
For nine weeks in 1974, off the shore of Martha’s Vineyard, the shooting of “Jaws” was repeatedly delayed by the whims of its temperamental stars. Bruce was the name given to the three mechanical predators built to simulate the great white shark at the heart of the story. Occasionally they wondered if it might not have been better to train an actual great white for the role. After seeing “The Shark Is Broken,” a play about that disastrous shoot, you may wonder the opposite: whether it might not have been better to cast the movie with mechanical humans. All of that is faithfully rendered in “The Shark Is Broken,” which opened on Thursday at the Golden Theater, in a production directed by Guy Masterson.

[1/3] Director William Friedkin attends a walking tour around Georgetown that focused on some of the film locations from the original Exorcist in Washington D.C., U.S. April 17, 2018. "The French Connection" won five Academy Awards, including best picture, best director for Friedkin and best actor for Gene Hackman, who Friedkin initially did not want in the memorable role of New York narcotics detective Popeye Doyle. "The Exorcist" was nominated for 10 Academy Awards, including best picture and best director for Friedkin. In "The French Connection," cops played by Hackman and Roy Scheider in the decaying New York City of the early 1970s track a French heroin smuggler. William David Friedkin was born on Aug. 29, 1935, and grew up in Chicago, the son of poor Ukrainian immigrants.

☆ ‘The Shark Is Broken,’ a ‘Jaws’ Comedy, Plans Broadway Run
  + stars: | 2023-04-25 | by ( Michael Paulson | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: 1 min
“The Shark Is Broken,” a comedy about the making of “Jaws” that stars the son of one of the film’s main actors, will open on Broadway this summer. The play is the brainchild of Ian Shaw, whose father, Robert Shaw, played Quint, the psychotic shark hunter, in the film. Its film set was plagued by problems, some exacerbated by Robert Shaw’s drinking, and the play depicts the fraught relationship between him and his co-stars, Richard Dreyfuss and Roy Scheider. In the play, set in 1974, the three men are trapped together on a boat, managing bad weather, (fake) shark troubles and alcohol. The Broadway run is to begin previews on July 25 and to open on Aug. 10 at the Golden Theater.
