The first episode of our season on the awesome movie year of 1975 features the highest-grossing film at the box office, Steven Spielberg’s Jaws. Directed by Steven Spielberg from a screenplay co-written by Peter Benchley (based on his novel) and starring Roy Scheider, Richard Dreyfuss, Robert Shaw, Lorraine Gary and Murray Hamilton, Jaws stood for two years as the highest-grossing movie of all time.
