Verna Fields

And then Terry Garr, she's kind of the mother.

And then the... what's her name? Verna Herzog, Verna, the lady at the very end, Verna Fields, Verna Fields.

And I think she's the crone.

That's so interesting.

And then let's talk about Marcia a little bit, 'cause Marcia's hugely, hugely important to his story, and is more and more important as, as things go on.

But Marcia, he meets while he's working for, um, she's, Verna Fields, who's a really, another brilliant film editor.

Um, and they're cutting together government films and, you know, the president's speech and things like that.

But Marcia is a film editor, and Marcia, I, I think, part, I mean, Marcia's a great looking, as he always says, she's, it's, all these people he knew were telling me the same thing.

So the film was covered in by Peter Brunchley, who wrote the book, and then Carl Gottlieb.

It was edited by Verna Fields, who I heard really kind of made it what it was because the movie was a bit of a mess because it was his like first...

It wasn't his debut film, but it was his... first like biggest film.

Like this is the film that put Spielberg on the map.

yeah yeah there were so many firsts with it and the shark broke down a lot there it was just um one of the actors uh was an alcoholic he was like hard to work with the what's his name quint yeah and um anyway so in the end

little method acting there

yeah honestly in the end uh verna fields had to like really kind of put this put this girl together which i just think is really cool

Well, yeah, I think the shark was broken most of the time.

Hugely, hugely important to a story and is more and more important as things go on.

But Marcia, he meets while he's working for Verna Fields, who's a really another brilliant film editor.

And they're cutting together government films and, you know, the president's speech and things like that.
