Royale's Autobiographical Movie List-Post 3:The Early Years Continued

I went to see Jaws. It was 1975 and I was 11 years old. I went to see it after it had been at the theaters for a few weeks. For the longest time, my mother wouldn't let me see it after what she had heard about it. It is hard to believe that it was such a big deal but it was. When I finally was allowed to go see it, I went alone because almost everyone else that I knew had seen it already. When I went into the theater a friend of mine and his family were there so I watched the movie with them. Jaws is still a great movie but it's age does show. I think the important lesson that I learned from Jaws is that things always as bad as people say they are. I jumped at a couple of scenes but I was more excited than scared and I didn't have a problem going back into the water after that.
