This is a real essay turned in to my professor last year. it received an A.

an excerpt from the essay

JAWS DOESN'T LIKE PEOPLE

by Ray Watkins.

Quint says Jaws* is either "very smart, or very dumb." The answer is "very smart," Quint. But not just animal smart thought. Jaws is human smart. Jaws knows exactly where the boat is vulnerable to attack (the back) Jaws knows Brody is hiding in the cabin. Jaws is no regular animal. Jaws is the anomalous.
Jaws is not the typical anomalous. Jaws transcends the animal world through his antrhopomorphic qualities. Jaws can think like a human. Jaws is aware of human morals. Jaws is aware of human traditions. Jaws is aware of humans. But Jaws doesn't care. Jaws hates all of them... and Jaws wants to eat YOU.
Jaws fights dirty. When Hooper goes into the water jaws comes from the front and then disappears, but watch out, Richard Dreyfus, Jaws doesn't want a high noon showdown, no sir. NO! Jaws attacks from behind.
Jaws thinks dirty. "Jaws, what are you doing swimming under naked girls?" Oh, that dirty Jaws, with that up skirt shot, minus the skirt.
Jaws kills the innocent. Jaws kills a beautiful, naked, naked girl. Jaws kills man's best friend, and a cute little boy. Jaws kills everyone's favorite fishing buddy, Ben Gardner. The only slightly bad person Jaws kills is Quint, and this is only because Jaws wants to kill Brody, the American hero. But why does Jaws want to kill the American hero?
Because Jaws hates America.
What day does Jaws choose to center his attacks around? the Fourth of July, Independence day. Why? Because Jaws wants America to fall. Jaws' ancestors tried to make the message clear. They ate almost the whole crew of the ship that delivered the bomb. But YOU didn't get the message, so now Jaws is making it clear.
"This wasn't a boat propeller or a coral reef...or Jack the Ripper." No, Hooper, you fool, it wasn't. It wasn't machine or animal or man. It was jaws, the super-animal. Jaws is the anomalous. The dirty, mean, immoral, un-American bastard shark...that wants to eat YOU.

* I call the shark Jaws. Whenever i say Jaws, i mean the shark in the movie Jaws.
