The iconic music. The quotable lines. Celebrate the 50th anniversary of the classic movie, Jaws and hear behind-the-scenes stories, insights into the making of the movie, and how it launched the legendary career of director Steven Spielberg.

Entertainment journalist and podcaster Joe Meyers will take us for a deep dive into the phenomenon of Jaws and other Spielberg classics like E.T. and Indiana Jones, and historical dramas like Lincoln and Saving Private Ryan.

The iconic film that had us all scared to go in the water not only put Spielberg on the pop culture map but also heralded in the concept of the "summer blockbuster".

Joe Meyers is the Director of Programming for CT's 'Focus on French Cinema Film Festival' and co-host of the Spotify podcast ‘Now a Major Motion Picture!’

There will also be a showing of Jaws earlier in the day, at 2pm, in the Program Room at the Library.
