My Fave Movie of All Time!

In the Summer of 1976 I was with family having our summer holiday in Kilkee, Co Clare. I was 5 years old. I went to the Olympia to see a movie. The Olympia was this little hall with fold out seats and a projector screen. I didn't care. All I cared about was the movie. 'Jaws' changed my life forever and ushered in a love for all things cinema. I lost myself for the first time in a movie. I became obsessed with sharks. I lived and breathed them. I studied them all summer long. My cousin Gary and I spent a 'Jaws' filled summer together that year. I never looked at the sea the same way again but hell I got back in the water!
