A bit meandering.

Todays screening at the Ambler was the first time I experienced JAWS in a movie theater. It was the first movie shown to me by my dad when I was very young. He ignited my love of movie making. Much of what my dad described when he saw it in theaters remains true fifty years later. Screams of terror when the shark first pops up, claps and cheers when the shark blows up. Though I can never experience JAWS like this with him, it felt like a vicarious rite of age to see it in theaters today. It got me a lil choked up.
