Great While Shark IMAX at the Franklin Institute
Explore the Great White Shark’s place in our imaginations, in our fears, and in the reality of its role at the top of the oceanic food chain. Shot on location in South Africa, New Zealand, Mexico and California, the film looks to find the truth behind the mythic creature forever stigmatized by its portrayal in the world’s first blockbuster movie, Jaws. Great Whites pre-date the dinosaurs in evolutionary history, and have evolved to be both warm-blooded and give birth to live pups, much like mammals, yet we fail to look on them with the warmth we might afford land based carnivores such as lions, tigers and bears. Uncover the strength and beauty of these animals by looking through the eyes of those who have been touched by their shark encounters.
Admission: $9.00 per person (member discounts available)
Plus, keep watch for great restaurant and bar specials for those that love shark week as much as we do. If you know of a great special please comment below.
