JAWS @ 50 is a movie about how filmmakers make the old film Jaws. It comes out 50 years ago.

Steven Spielberg is the director. When they make the movie, the shark does not work well. They film in the ocean for five months. It is very hard. People are tired and scared. But in the end, the movie is a big hit. It makes many people want to watch movies in the summer. It also helps people care about sharks.

Now, people still love Jaws. Even with new shark movies, many people say that this one is the best. Spielberg says making Jaws changes his life.

Difficult words: director (the boss of making a movie), scared (afraid, worried), hit (a popular movie or song).

You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.

What problem did the filmmakers encounter with the shark during the production of Jaws?
