Kingsbury taught Robert Shaw how to act like an old sea dog, when he was playing Quint. In some interviews, Robert Shaw had speculated that islanders were inbred. Much to the comical love of the locals, who had dared Kingsbury during his coaching of Shaw to say it. Kingsbury's plastered severed head from the film is one of the most treasured JAWS displays at fan conventions to this day.
