[quote=ronnierocketAGO]Speaking of '75, how about some thoughts from the old timers who actually saw this back in the day? My mother told me the story of when she saw it, she was getting up to go the bathroom when the guy's head rolls out from the wrecked fishing boat. It scared her and she accidentally fell down the (unlighted) aisle steps.

I was 11 when my family and I went to see Jaws on a summer Saturday afternoon. At the time I hadn't remembered nearly as much excitement generated about a movie in my life. This also is probably the last movie that my family attended all together.

I think the scene that startled me the most that day was the shark emerging from the scene while Chief Brodie was spreading chum.
