Versions alternatives for
Jaws (1975) Plus avec IMDbPro »

• The version shown in recent years on television (as of 2005) includes a lengthier scene where the crazed fishermen hunt sharks to collect Mrs. Kinter's reward. It shows them crazily firing rifles into the water, much like a shark feeding frenzy.
  
  
• In the 30th anniversary DVD edition of the film, all the movie remains the same except for Brody's final encounter with the shark. His famous line is cut, thus, only letting him says, "Smile, you son of a..." before he fires the gun. The original quote, ['Smile, you son of a bitch'] has inexplicable been censored while the gore and blood in the rest of the film is left untouched.
  
  
• Television versions feature additional scenes: extra scenes on TV included a longer discussion between the Mayor and Hendricks (the guy with the busted fence complains to the mayor) and one involving Quint buying piano wire from a music store.
  
  
• The Finnish video version lacks the goriest scenes (Quint bitten in the end, close-up of Ben Gardner's head, severed leg falling to the bottom etc.).
  
  
• The DVD release includes several deleted scenes which include:
  • Brody feeds the dogs in the kitchen.
  • Quint buys piano wire and berates a boy in a music shop.
  • The shark hunters' flotilla battles amongst itself to pull up a tiger shark to claim the bounty.
  • On the way to cut open the tiger shark, Hooper tells Brody about a $1200 phone bill and a girl who liked phone sex.
  
  
  
• On the laserdisc version, there is an additional deleted scene where Quint and his little friend are talking in a boathouse. His friend tells him he's not going with him to hunt the shark. Quint responds by calling him a "miserable little son of a b*tch."
  
  
• The television version cuts the shot of the man in the boat's leg sinking to the bottom of the ocean. The shot where Quint vomits blood as the shark bites into his stomach is cut. Most of the profanity is also removed.
  
  
• The recent 25th Anniversary release on VHS and DVD contained all new sound effects (even though the original release won the Oscar for Best Sound).
  
  
• Another cut scene shown in the DVD (and also spliced into the film in some TV versions) has a longer conversation between Brody and Cassidy before Chrissy's body is discovered. In this cut, Cassidy's attitude toward Chrissy's disappearance is much colder: when he says "She must've drowned," he shows no emotion at all, and he quickly goes into a casual conversation about his rent and bills.
