[DocsBarna] Valerie Taylor's story claims her as one of the most influential in the fight against the disappearance of sharks. But it has an excessively kind vision of the protagonist, who does not question her contribution to that negative image. It does it with "Jaws" (1975), but it doesn't mention later works like "Orca" (1977) or "Jaws 2" (1979). This lack of depth detracts from the other points of interest.

What a remarkable woman. Had me gasping the whole time. I’m not gonna be any less afraid of sharks but I never thought their right to live should have anything to do with whether they can or not kill me or be my friends. All creatures belong on earth. This is a great docu.
