Jaws the Revenge (1987)". Rotten Tomatoes. Archived from the original on 2021-11-04 . Retrieved 2021-01-01. Jaws' is a genuine masterpiece of suspense and terror, much of it thanks in large part to the editing work of Fields, which makes the film an excellent piece for study. All other areas also come together exceptionally well, from Spielberg's directing, Butler's photography and Williams' iconic theme. To put it more bluntly, it's a remarkable work in the art of horror — simple, efficient and just as effective today as ever. It's an important and significant piece in the history of cinema offering a great deal to discuss and analyze, but we'll leave it for now as a motion picture that should continue being cherished by future generations of film-lovers everywhere.

Jaws (13) John Williams composed the film's score, which earned him an Academy Award and was later ranked the sixth-greatest score by the American Film Institute. [75] [76] The main "shark" theme, a simple alternating pattern of two notes—variously identified as "E and F" [77] or "F and F sharp" [78]—became a classic piece of suspense music, synonymous with approaching danger [79] (see leading-tone). Williams described the theme as "grinding away at you, just as a shark would do, instinctual, relentless, unstoppable." [80] The piece was performed by tuba player Tommy Johnson. When asked by Johnson why the melody was written in such a high register and not played by the more appropriate French horn, Williams responded that he wanted it to sound "a little more threatening". [81] When Williams first demonstrated his idea to Spielberg, playing just the two notes on a piano, Spielberg was said to have laughed, thinking that it was a joke. As Williams saw similarities between Jaws and pirate movies, at other points in the score he evoked "pirate music", which he called "primal, but fun and entertaining". [74] Calling for rapid, percussive string playing, the score contains echoes of La mer by Claude Debussy as well of Igor Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring. [78] [82]
