When I saw the movie in 1975 at the theater, I was sitting between two friends of mine. They could not understand why, at several points of the film that were supposed to be scary, I had burst out laughing. But they had not majored in zoology, with a speciality in animal behavior.
I can see that, but...I loved it as entertainment.
I am not one of those that looks to the theater for facts and learning, for sure.
Hahaha, you were lucky you weren’t sitting next to me in that theater-when Brody is chumming the water and the shark appears, I involuntarily jerked my hand back and smacked the lady sitting next to me!
Heh, I think she was so disturbed by the movie I don’t recall if she even noticed, but I did whack her pretty good!
