Robert Shaw's Explosive Moments on the Set of Jaws: A Case Study What’s the perfect summer movie? JAWS, of course! In my opinion, JAWs is one of the greatest films of all time but it was born from a volatile environment, who was it who said - Chaos is the fuel that ignites the fire within, pushing us towards greatness. With never-changing script re-writes, cast fallouts and mechanical failures in the sea off Marthas Vineyard its a wonder this film was ever made. Steven Spielberg’s masterpiece

Youssef Kerkour Ridley Scott’s Napoleon returns to The Mighty Dragon with another great interview. This week, I am speaking to Napoleon’s right-hand man, Marshal Davout.
