It’ s up to the newly appointed police chief( Scheider), an ichthyologist( Dreyfuss) and a salty fisherman( Shaw) to kill the“ eating machine.” John Williams’ score, which takes inspiration from other classic seafaring adventures, as well as Stravinsky’ s Rite of Spring, made him the most sought-after composer in Hollywood.
