Jaws

In celebration of the 35th Anniversary of Jaws, the American Film Institute’s Silver Theatre screens the original summer blockbuster from Steven Spielberg. It's the movie that put the director on the map -- but, honestly, he has editor Verna Fields to thank, since the fear Jaws incites is all in the editing (it certainly isn't in the rubbery mechanical shark). Featuring stunning performances from Roy Scheider ("You're gonna need a bigger boat") and the magnificent Robert Shaw. Sunday, Sept. 12, at 8:30 p.m., Monday, Sept. 13, at 9:15 p.m., Tuesday, Sept. 14, at 9 p.m., Wednesday, Sept. 15, at 9:45 p.m., and Thursday, Sept. 16, at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. AFI Silver Theatre, 8633 Colesville Rd., Silver Spring. Tickets are $10 general admission. Call 301-495-6720 or visit afi.com/Silver.
