History

Courage & Stupidity was released in 2005.[3]

The film was screened at Fantasia, the Sitges Film Festival in Spain, and Plymouth Independent Film Festival.[4][5] It was distributed by Netflix.[6]

Synopsis

Courage & Stupidity reimagines Steven Spielberg's making of Jaws.[4] It depicts a fantasy story of how the making of that movie troubled the filmmaker's early career after the mechanical shark broke down during production.[4]

Courage & Stupidity derives its title from a statement made by Mr. Spielberg about his behind-the-scenes memories of the 1970s blockbuster. Courage & Stupidity also contains numerous easter-egg references to other Spielberg films.[2][7]
