June 20 marks the 40th anniversary of “Jaws, ” which revolutionized the industry — even though the numbers seem pretty quaint by today’s standards.
In its first three days in 1975, the film earned $7 million, jumping to $14 million in its first week. In its 59th day of release, the Universal movie passed the $100 million mark. That’s chump change in the current world, but in those days, “Jaws” was jaw-dropping.
