What’s Coming to Tubi in August 2021, Including ‘Jaws’ Films and ‘Little Miss Sunshine’
Steven Spielberg’s original thriller Jaws spawned three additional movies. Who can forget that pounding score as the first in the series posits a beach community that doesn’t want to scare residents — but comes face-to-face with a killer from the deep?
This month, Tubi is also streaming the four-time Oscar winner Little Miss Sunshine, the offbeat family drama that won Best Picture in 2007. Plus, it put Abigail Breslin (Signs, Zombieland) on the map for moviegoers. Directed by the husband-wife team of Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris, Little Miss Sunshine deals with issues of loss, suicide, beauty, and familial expectation in both humorous and touching ways.

Jaws
June 20, 1975When an insatiable great white shark terrorizes the townspeople of Amity Island, the police chief, an oceanographer and a grizzled shark hunter seek to destroy the blood-thirsty beast.
Steven Spielberg directs a great cast in Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, and Robert Shaw. John Williams’ immortal score was an instant sensation. “Jaws” was the first summer blockbuster - a well-reviewed crowd-pleaser that sent audiences screaming for the exits.
In 2001, the film was selected by the Library of Congress for preservation in the United States National Film Registry as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”.

Little Miss Sunshine
July 26, 2006A family loaded with quirky, colorful characters piles into an old van and road trips to California for little Olive to compete in a beauty pageant.
