Thanks for posting this as an extra. Among the greatest monologues in cinema history.
It's up there with Rocky's "It ain't about how hard you hit" speech.
Yeah, I've read more about the Indianapolis story and it made me think! I also saw that they made a movie about it as well, which I haven't seen either. (:
@@BossMovieReactionsif you want to hear a survivor of the USS Indianapolis tell his story....

No doubt Robert Shaw’s portrayal of Quint in this scene is some of the best acting you’ll ever see 🦈
It WAS amazing! (:
I love that you emphasized this scene by playing it all the way through.
Yeah, after reading up on the USS Indianapolis story I thought it was appropriate. Thx! (:
Excellent. The fact that Robert Shaw's real voice and English accent sounds nothing like this is a testament to his acting abilities.
Interesting. I guess I've never heard his real voice! (:
His accent was incredibly thick. He was a master of his art. The candle that burnt twice as bright.
Others have said this, but I have to concur. This is one of the best monologues ever written and put on film. What amazes me even more about it as that according to one of the screenwriters for Jaws (Carl Gottlieb), Robert Shaw (Quint) actually wrote the final version of the speech that makes it into the picture. Mr. Shaw wasn't just a fine actor, but an accomplished novelist and playwright.
Very interesting! Thanks for sharing! (:
I'll never forget this scene in my lifetime. So well acted and directed
Agreed! (:
Wow you made a separate edit due to popular demand and its arguably the mostly widely known exposition in a film, very clever, plus the armed forces, US WW2 sacrifices note of respect, very apt and tasteful, thank you!
Yeah, I've read more about the Indianapolis story and it made me think! I also saw that they made a movie about it as well, which I haven't seen either. So, I thought a supplement video was appropriate. (:
How does Robert Shaw not get the Oscar for this???
Yeah, many people were wondering about that. I-:
The competition that year was formidable!
Jack Nicholson - One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest (WINNER)
Walter Matthau - The Sunshine Boys
Al Pacino - Dog Day Afternoon
Maximilian Schell - The Man in the Glass Booth
James Whitmore - Give 'em Hell, Harry!
@@Stogie2112 Yeah, that's a good point, especially since only ONE can win. Thanks for watching! (:
Nice choice, to post this as its own video. Most reactors do include this scene, but it's usually cut off or cut up. It was really great just to watch you guys quietly watching this. I think Jaws is the only reaction I've seen from you two so far - - you're new on my radar. I like this follow up; very thoughtful. I was thinking of subbing anyway and here I go doing that. All the best.
Aw, thank you so much for your kind words and for subscribing, you won't regret it! Thanks! (:
Thanks for this. You get a much better understanding of Quint's hard character. And you begin to realize how later on the White Shark becomes his obsession just like Captain Ahab and his White Wale.
Yes, I agree 100%. -- Thanks! (:
Thank you very much for including this! Even better.....you posted the whole clip (not just pieces of it).
Yes, I wanted to do it right this time. The copyright bots flagged it but allowed it to be uploaded anyway. (:
When Quint breaks the radio, I don't think it's because he wants the money all to himself; I think he wants to avenge his men all by himself. Or even - - maybe - - since he and his men were unable to signal for help during the war, in his mind he felt guilt over having a radio to get help with. Something like that.
Yeah, interesting take. It's definitely not about the money! Thanks for sharing! (:
Good take, never thought of it like that but, it was also about the money, 10 grand in the 70s is worth 60 grand today!
I was born and raised in Indianapolis, IN and my father was a Captain in the Navy. He told me about this story when I was younger and I've never forgotten it.
Yeah, I don't think I would have forgotten it either. I'm glad I learned about it now. Thanks for sharing! (:
I appreciate that this channel's makers listen to their audience and released this scene afterwards. It is a well written script and a perfect delivery. Such a classic.
Thanks for acknowledging that, Julian. And thanks for watching! (:
Powerful performance and the story is true as well.
Yeah, I've read more about the Indianapolis story by now and it made me think that a supplement video was appropriate! (:
Almost 50 years & this scene still gives me chills.
Yeah, especially knowing that it is a true story! Thanks for watching, Donald! (:
Thank you for posting this! I worked at a hospital in the Chicago area. I had the pleasure of meeting two of the Indy Survivors and becoming their friends. I went VFW's and American Legion's where they would speak with some other survivors from the mid=west. Besides, serving on the same ship together they all seem to have the same triggers for PTSD One was they could not sleep on water beds It would put them right back into the ocean In their minds and bring about horrific dreams. and if would smell like a oil water mixture. They have since passed on. I believe that one survivor remains as of today. The crazy thing many of those men suffered from dementia and Alzheimer's, But those memories are forever burnt in the minds.
One story I heard from one of the survivors was He tried not to talk about the tragedy did not want it brought up. I guess one day he was having a tough time at work came home and wanted a warm bath. He dozed off and awakened to his skin pruning from being in the water too long . He saw his hands and lost it and it caused hallucinations. All this because back in 1945 when they were rescued, their skin was so wrinkled and pruned and being in salt water ,when pulled into rescue boat their skin would tear.
Wow... Thank you so much for sharing these stories. Amazing stuff! I can only imagine how those people would be triggered by sleeping on a waterbed etc. Again, thanks for sharing! (:
I knew a man who helped pull these men out of the water. I only heard him speak of it once after a man tracked him down having seen his picture in the paper. He said he’d remember that smile as the man that pulled him from the water all those years ago. That was in the 90’s. He, of course, has since passed away. Veteran of 3 wars, and a good man.
Wow, what a memory that must've been! Thx! (:
Could you elaborate on his story or give more details of that amazing conversation. I believe the sinking didn't come out until years after the war. The captain who held survivors guilt offed himself in the 1970s. A definitive book was published in 2018. I found a copy at the local library.
@@markr.devereux3385 It wasn’t a direct conversation with me. I was a 20 something so he wasn’t really telling me any stories. He was discussing it with my 2nd cousin, they served together at one point, both in over 20 years. I mainly remember him describing the looks on the men’s faces and how he helped one guy walked to sit down. Without going into gory detail, salt water does some real damage to a persons skin after prolonged exposure. He started getting emotional and and it didn’t feel right for me to stay in the room, so I gave them privacy.
@@jeanine6328 yes how do you describe something like that to another landlubber. In the book I referenced the author went Into great detail if you are interested . It was difficult to read just the removal of the diesel fuel from the damaged skin. Even though we had family and friends in Navy, I choose army branch to serve. Never liked the open sea.
@@markr.devereux3385 I’m good actually. I’m a lil too good at imagining scenarios, I’ve already had nightmares about it. Nothing compared to what really happened but I try to limit my emotional super charged moments. There are movies I can’t even watch again because they left me drained. I’m weird, it’s ok.
I'm repeating what others have said, but I want to comment for the algorithm. Thank you for making this a "special feature."
Hey Jeff, thank you so much, that's very thoughtful of you! (:
Hahaha..... did we guilt you into this guys? LOL....... cool thanks for posting this
Haha... Yes, you guys made me think about it for a long time and I thought it would be appropriate to post a supplement video for you guys and in memory of the crew members. I hope I'm forgiven for a bad choice. (:
"Anyway, we delivered the Bomb."
Best line of the film.
Yeah, I'm happy I learned more about it... (:
You two posting this just got you a new subscriber. When I was 10 years old the family went to see Jaws at the theater. Me and my brother were both on the swim team and we both swore that we would never swim again after seeing the movie. Our father made us swim laps in the pool to try to get us over the fear of the shark. I was so afraid the shark was going to get me in the swimming pool 😆🤣
Ohhh...man. That's funny! Thanks for sharing and thanks for the sub!! (:
And Shaw was not even nominated for this.
Amazing.
Shaw should've gotten an Oscar for this.
Yes, many people agree with that. It was a very powerful performance indeed! Thanks for watching! (:
Wow! You my friend have a lot of style. Shows nothing but class to go back and edit another video to showw this clip. Its not so much that we missed the dialogue, but we "did miss your reaction" to the dialog. Thats the hardest part. Thanks again for sharing with us. From this alone you just got a sub. Welcome to the movies that helped shape our lives😊
Aw, you're awesome, thank you so much!! Thanks for watching, commenting, AND subscribing! (:
John Milius wrote alot of this screenplay section. Powerful scene.
Powerful indeed! (:
Thanks so much for posting this. You realize from Quint's story why he devoted the rest of his life to hunt sharks. Like Captain Ahab of Moby Dick, Quint had a vandetta against sharks.
Yes, Quint's speech reveals a lot about his character's motivations and, at the same time tells the Indianapolis story, etc. (:
This is my favorite scene in the movie. Thanks for posting the entire monologue.
You got it! I didn't really know about this true event, but I learned about it. Thanks for watching! (:
Wow. I’m over 66 years old and I have never seen anyone have no emotion like the boy there. He looks as cold as ice.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, England, we appreciate it. You seem to be misinterpreting the "cold as ice" expression with intense listening. You obviously haven't seen "Cast Away" or "Devil's Advocate" where the "boy" gets emotional like there's no tomorrow. Anyway, thanks for watching, and greetings to you! (:
Good form! You got me. I subscribed (as if I don't have enough reaction channels on my list).
I'm actually quite shocked you got the whole scene past the copyright bots, given all the problems I had with a Jaws video I fought tooth and nail to upload.
Aw, thanks for the sub!! And yes, I was surprised that I got it past the copyright as well. It, of course, detected the footage and speech, but it was "allowed" to be uploaded with no restrictions. I fought for almost three weeks to get AMERICAN HISTORY X past. Anyway, thanks for being here! (:
@BossMovieReactions I can't believe anybody hasn't heard the sad tale of the USS INDIANAPOLIS.. the sailors who survived were evacuated to HAWAII and stayed many weeks in hospital with severe burns and dehydration from saltwater.activities. The PBY pilot literally destroyed his plane to land and render assistance to the first group of survivors stacking them on every square foot of the plane because the sharks kept picking them off.😮
@@markr.devereux3385 Yeah, what a horrible story! As you might know, I grew up in Switzerland, so the USS Indianapolis incident wasn't exactly part of our history lesson. Thanks for sharing your thoughts and extra info! (:
@@BossMovieReactions how about the SWISS NAVY? 😄😄👍
@@markr.devereux3385 😃 Well, I actually served in the Swiss military before I moved to the U.S.. But, for your information, the Merchant Marine of Switzerland is the largest merchant navy of a landlocked country. Somewhat unusual for a landlocked country, Switzerland has a long tradition of civilian navigation, both on its lakes and rivers, and on the high seas. And, of course, Swiss Navy is also a lubricant... 😂👍
Their movie called The USS Indianapolis with Nicolas Cage . You should check it out.
YES, I came across this movie when I was reading up on the USS Indianapolis incident and I was waiting for someone to tell me if it's worth watching. Thx! (:
The last survivor of the uss Indianapolis. Just passed this year. Thanks for posting this 💜 very powerful testimony crazy part about this u can imagine it as he telling the story
Yeah, this story is terrifying indeed! Sad to hear about the last survivor dying this year. Thank you so much for sharing! (-:
That information had been recently declassified during filming. Shaw studied it and incorporated it into this scene. Magnificent!
That's magnificent indeed! Thanks for sharing! (:
That's magnificent indeed! Thanks for sharing! (:
Very good, I really enjoyed your reaction to Jaws but noted Quint's monologue(based on a true story) that was delivered so well by Robert Shaw was not included. Thank You!
Yeah, some people mentioned it, so I've read more about the incident and therefore decided that a supplement video was appropriate. (:
@@BossMovieReactions Nice! I'm a new subscriber and going through all your reactions and looking forward to more!❤👍
@@blanewilliams5960 Aw, that's awesome! Thanks for subscribing!! (:
'I will never put on a lifejacket again.' That is the final nail. He couldn't face being in the water again. Drown quick. Brilliant delivery.
Yes, what a terrifying story! Thanks for watching! (:
Good reaction. Not Jaws, but this scene, there's another true story that plays out this scene. It's called Open Water. Fairly recent. It's like watching his speech play out as a movie.
Thanks for letting me know. (:
And what's sad,a lot of Americans didn't know this was true while watching this scene at the time..Robert Shaw delivered this like he'd actually been there, superb actor and movie.
Yes, I didn't know either, but I quickly learned about it. Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts. (:
May I recommend a Film ???
Little Big Man 👏👏
Unusual Comedy 🤷✌️🤠
I put it on the list! Thanks, John! (:
This story which was true, and Shaw's delivery of it is the reason why when see the shark even though you can tell it's fake your terrified of it. There is a reason this is Spielberg's best.
Yes, good points, JC Watz. And thanks for watching! (:
you cut out the most important part..... Mary Ellen Moffat..... you broke her heart.
just kidding
you took some hits for not including this historic scene in your original reaction......... nice recovery by posting this whole clip.
and btw..... I really enjoyed your reaction, even though you didn't talk through it, or have strong emotional responses..... sometimes being stoically engrossed in the subject matter works too.
Haha... U funny! Yeah, if you want to see an emotional reaction, watch CAST AWAY... Oh, boy... Thanks for watching and commenting! We appreciate it! (:
@@BossMovieReactions I did watch your reaction btw..... I was the goofy guy who came up with the Cast Away tag line they should have used in the movie..... it is better to have loved and lost..... than to have never loved a ball.🏐
@@JuandeFucaU Haha... Yeah, I remember that. So, I was right, U funny! (:
@@BossMovieReactions I try...... btw, just so's yannos..... (but let's not make this all about me, please..... just to set the record straight before I make a mess in your sandbox)
I borrowed this unofficial nickname from my ol' alma mater UVic about 40 years ago and Juan de Fuca was an old Spanish explorer who got his name on the map in my area.
just in case anyone was to think I was trying to be rude instead of funny..... not you, I don't think..... but you know how people love to get easily offended sometimes, right?
I plan on watching your channel grow like the 100+ other reactors I've subbed to..... you're quickly becoming my favourites..... best wishes, luck, thoughts, hope, and/or prayers.
@@JuandeFucaU Aw, thank you so much for your kind words, we appreciate it! Ah, Juan de Fuca, the Greek sailor who served Philip II of Spain. Yes, some people love to get easily offended, lol! Thanks for being on board with us! (:
The USS indianapolis was a real event. It was the ship that carried the A-Bomb that was eventually dropped by The US Bomber Enola Gay Superfortress B-29. While there is no clear indicator as far as exactly how many were lost to sharks, it is estimated that better than 150~ 175 men from the 1200 man crew were lost via shark attack. Many of the crew were lost or killed at sea from overexposure to the elements, starvation, and mental trauma as well as unsustainable injury after the sinking of the Indianapolis. Approximately 1/4 of the crew were killed as a result of the impact and explosion. Some probably died tending to General Quarter Stations(emergency alarm condition in the event of emergency) unaware that the ship was doomed. Approximately 1/4 of the ships crew survived the ordeal.
Thank you so much for sharing this, Rob, we appreciate it!! (:
I would love to see you and your wife react to one of your own movies 🎬 🎞 🎥 that would be epic
Hmm... That is a very interesting idea. I guess it wouldn't really be a "reaction" but rather a "commentary" video. I'll ponder... Thanks for that suggestion! (:
Robert Shaw. None quite like him. Especially in this scene.
Yes, indeed. Thanks for watching! (:
You should react to USS Indianapolis: Men of Courage with Nicholas Cage
The movie takes some dramatic license, but the actual days floating in the ocean were *considerably* more gruesome than they showed in the movie
Thanks for the suggestion. After learning more about the USS Indianapolis I indeed added the movie to our list. Thanks! (:
I remember the story of the USS Indianapolis. Watch “The Mission of the Shark.” 1991. A fact based movie of that event. I found it channel surfing late night. If you do watch it keep tissues handy.
Thanks for that, Mark. I added the movie to our list! (:
In my biased opinion, the story of the Indianapolis should be in the history books. They played a major role in WW2 when they delivered the humanity’s most dangerous weapon.
I assumed that it was in the history books, but I'm glad I learned more about it through this film. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. (:
Ditto to all the below. 👍
Thanks! (:
The full story is much worse.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Charles_B._McVay_III
Wow, worse? I feel horrible for those people as it is. Thanks for watching! (:
Thanks for sharing!
@@BossMovieReactions The Captain's father was an Admiral. The Captain's superior was reprimanded by his superior, the father. The grudge was used against the Captain. He eventually took his own life.
@@marcustalley7987 Oh, boy. Thanks for sharing! O-:
