You know what, I didn't even know that Roy Scheider died on Monday at the age of 75. This is what happens, when I neglect to read the trades for a week. I can't believe I missed this, that Roy Scheider, one of my all time favorite actors has passed away. Jaws is probably one of my all time favorite movies ever made and Roy Scheider is part of the reason why.
I remember Scheider fondly for his role on SeaQuest opposite the late Jonathan Brandon, but moreso for Jaws. God, I remember watching Jaws for the first time and just realizing that this is what movies are about. It's not about how you do it, it's about getting the point across making it look real and believable and Jaws did that. It scared a lot of people from going in the water.
Roy Scheider will be severely missed here at the BoA.
