"50 Years Ago in Film: From Jaws to Cuckoo's Nest and Beyond"
Fifty years ago, two movies made history. Jaws became the highest-grossing movie up to that time, establishing the “summer blockbuster” phenomenon while also introducing the world to Steven Spielberg. Several months later, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest became only the second movie ever to take all five top Oscars: Picture, Director, Screenplay, Actor and Actress. Learn about the blockbusters and the bombs from that same time.
Join local film critic and speaker Joseph W. Smith III for a lively discussion of that glorious year:1975!
