Why Jaws Is About More Than a Shark | Masculine Mondays #18

Jaws (1975) is more than just a shark movie. It’s a film about fear, courage, responsibility, and what it means to be a man under pressure. We’ll dive deep into the themes, archetypes, and key scenes — from the Kintner boy’s death, to Quint’s chilling Indianapolis speech, to Brody’s final confrontation with the shark. This isn’t just a movie breakdown, it’s an exploration of what masculinity looks like when men are tested by fear, failure, and responsibility.
