Jaws: Posting Stuff While I Watch

Hooper magically appears from the depths as the seagulls feast on shark. He asks about Quint, Brody tells him he's dead. They use some debris and barrels to kickboard their way to shore. Seagulls circle.

It has sort of a Casablanca ending with the two men going off together chatting.

The last shot is a far shot of the beach and the men getting to shore.

And that's it.

I love it when a filmmaker knows when to end a movie. There's really no need to show Brody reuniting with his wide or anything else. It's over, they survived.
