Nine years ago, The Cabot started screening Jaws on Memorial Day Weekend. To be as inclusive as possible, we will be screening the movie (with no special guests) for our standard movie ticket price on Friday May 24th. Come celebrate the tradition with us!
When a young woman is killed by a shark while skinny-dipping near the New England tourist town of Amity Island, police chief Martin Brody (Roy Scheider) wants to close the beaches, but mayor Larry Vaughn (Murray Hamilton) overrules him, fearing that the loss of tourist revenue will cripple the town. Ichthyologist Matt Hooper (Richard Dreyfuss) and grizzled ship captain Quint (Robert Shaw) offer to help Brody capture the killer beast, and the trio engage in an epic battle of man vs. nature.
