Saturday, June 22, at sundown (around 8:30 p.m.), the Cold Spring Film Society will show the original summer blockbuster Jaws (1975) in Dockside Park on the Cold Spring riverfront. The film was Steven Spielberg’s second theatrical feature (after Sugarland Express) and stars Roy Scheider, Robert Shaw, Richard Dreyfuss and a gigantic mechanical shark the crew called “Bruce.”

Viewers are encouraged to bring a blanket and a picnic. CSFM will be selling fresh popcorn, lemonade, candy and T-shirts, as well as memberships to the film society to help support the screenings (and receive a tote bag as well).
