Trivia: “You’re gonna need a bigger boat” is spoken in what 1975 thriller?
The French Connection
Deliverance
Jaws
Chinatown
The correct answer is Jaws
So why is this answer correct? : Spoken just moments after laying eyes on the great white shark, Chief Brody (Roy Schneider) advises his companions, “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.” “Jaws” (1975) co-writer Carl Gottlieb explained that the line started off as a joke during production. Initially, the crew carried equipment and craft services on a barge towing a support boat that was too small. Everyone complained about the size, saying, “You’re gonna need a bigger boat.” The catchphrase was used throughout the production to describe anything that went wrong.
