Jaws was a groundbreaking film in many ways. It was the first film to depict non-ficticious, aquatic creatures in violent confrontation with man. When it was first screened there were reports of people running from the cinimas in fright, and an irrational fear of water developed across America. People were known to be afraid to sit on the toilet or turn on a tap (presumably incase a giant man-eating shark came out of it!) European screenings produced a less hysterical reaction but a reaction nontheless. If memory serves it was also the first film to gross over 1million U.S dollars in the box office on its premier night.
