'Jaws' - Best Picture Nominee, 1975

Speaking of Steven Spielberg, we're watching "Jaws" on Cinemax right now. "One Flew Over the Cuckoos Nest" won best picture in 1975, and looking at the list, the competition was tough back then:

I saw "Jaws" at the movie theater. It was a big deal. But looking at the list, my parents took me to see "Funny Girl," which was nominated for best picture in 1968. That's the earliest one for me (seeing a flick at the movies), at least for any of the films nominated for an Oscar. I was about 7 years-old.

  1. Jaws was cool. I loved Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss. Was the other guy Roy Scheider? A classic.
