The Deep in 35mm

The bestselling aquatic thriller by Jaws author Peter Benchley became a summer blockbuster under the direction of four-time Oscar nominee Peter Yates (Bullitt, 1968), with Robert Shaw commanding the screen as a Bahamas treasure hunter who aids a vacationing couple (Jacqueline Bisset and Nick Nolte) in a dangerous hunt for a sunken fortune.

The film’s memorable diving scenes benefit from the impressive underwater cinematography of second unit directors Al Giddings (The Abyss, 1989) and Stan Waterman, and the evocative score by five-time Oscar winner John Barry.
