I lived on the water.

Rating: 10/10 (9 May 2006)

This movie really had an impact on my life! I use to live in Duxbury as a young child at the time my father decided to take me and my little brother to see. We heard the scary music and when the shark came around..my brother and I were under the seats of the movie patrons in front of us screaming and crying while my father laughed away thinking it was the greatest time in his life. Anyways...I use to love the water living in Duxbury Massachusetts...I still do! But I had to overcome the fear of the water thru the years and acquired a great interest in sharks. It made me more smart of our oceanic surroundings in New England. I've visited Martha's Vineyard for the JawsFest of 05 and was able to get up close to different points of interest of the movie. I'm 35 years old today....5 at the time of the release of the movie. Even though the movie was quite a scare for me in the younger years...it brings back good memories of growing up near the water with my little brother...the good ones. I love the beach, the water and boating and fishing.
This movie did change the way many people look at the ocean now and how much time they spend at the beaches actually "swimming". So it sent people away from the beaches to get involved in other outdoor activities.
But anyways...James Cameron is now producing a remake! Here is the website to view his teaser! http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2705402
