OVER BLACK SCENE CARD
Jaws Makes the Town Meeting an Economy-Danger Trap
The shark becomes civic pressure before it becomes action spectacle. The town meeting turns public safety into an economic argument with a body count attached.
Why it works
The beach cannot simply close because Amity is an institution of summer money. The scene makes denial procedural, social, and financially rational.
