Another Friday - another trip down Mitchell Anderson's career memory lane. I have a ZOOM interview today with a documentarian who is working on a project about the making of...wait for it... JAWS, THE REVENGE! I bet you didn't know that there we people out there who are obsessed with the JAWS movies, up to including the fourth and final installment, which featured Lorraine Gary literally spearing the shark with the prow of a fishing boat - don't ask. I surely didn't!
This guy, who is very nice and very persistent, actually drove to my house from Orlando last year to do an extensive interview about the making of the movie. Sadly, the footage he shot, (and there was a lot of it, because we all know I can talk!) was corrupted and unusable. He has been trying to reshoot me ever since. But, hm, I have a day job, and not much extra time. Anyway, Shark Week is coming up in July. (Side note... I was also invited to Tampa for SharkCon to sign autographs - an invitation I politely decline, not my thing.) But I think he wants to get the movie done before then. So I'll spend an hour on ZOOM rehashing my very graphic, famous death scene, which was filmed on a harbor boat in Martha's Vineyard in the dead of winter, February 1986. Come to think of it, that part is a pretty good story. Stay tuned and I'll get you the link once it's all done and you too can learn everything you didn't know you wanted to know about the making of JAWS, THE REVENGE!
Come see us for a lobster roll at MetroFresh Uptown today. $25 each - includes a side of slaw... Have a great Friday.
