Synopsis:

A Steven Spielberg Double Feature of Duel and Jaws.

Intentions:

Intention was to recut my first "Battle" cut of Duel now in a short 31 minutes version with other music overdub. Also some technical improvements are done which was not possible in the first one. Jaws is simply a faster cut and the social life of Chief Brody is more on the background in this cut.

Change List:

Flammable: - Opening scene is cut, Mann is already on the road - The radio sound is gone - There are some very small cuts in the first scene when he drives to the Truck and in the first chase - Gas station is cut, so also the phone conversation - The Dialogue is almost gone, there are a few short lines of Mann and the two old guys when he crashes in front of the restaurant - The Restaurant scene is cut, Mann stays in his car after the crash - Bus driver and children are cut - The Snake lady and the Phone booth scene is cut - Asking for help to the old man and lady is cut, also in that scene there are some small cuts, like Mann is NOT walking to the Truck - Some movie mistakes of the original are cut Summer of the White Shark: - Credits are cut (new credits) - Attack on the first victim is a little bit trimmed - I cut most of the scenes of the family of Brody, he has a family but that's it - In most of the scenes unnecessary dialogue is cut - Attack of the two fishermen is cut, (you don't see the shark so in the trashcan with it) - Quint is a little (very little) nicer to Hooper in this edit, so no working class hero bullshit - There are some scenes cut of Brody and Hooper (trimmed or cut like the visit of Hooper at Brody's house) - Ellen Brody is way at the background in this cut - On the boat of Quint the action scenes are now more "together" if you know what i mean - The story of Quint about the sharks in the early days is cut, the following song is still in this edit - Building the shark cage is cut.
