I thought it was either Paper Moon or The Sting, but they were in 1973.  It must have been The Poseidon Adventure in 72'.

I feel old.

Never been a big theater-goer.

Hmmm, had to be "Herbie Goes Bananas"

although the one I remember best was when my dad took me to see "Star Wars" and kicked off an obsession.

ETA: Couldn't have been Herbie Goes Bananas... I just checked IMDB. Maybe Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo? Oh well. Star Wars was what really sticks out anyway.

I have a copy and watch it now and then.  It is a great movie.  And you are sure correct about the non-PC-ness of the movie.
