Roy Scheider has died. News reports only credit him with one movie, Jaws, even though he received two Oscar nominations, for best-supporting actor in 1971's "The French Connection" in which he played the police partner of Oscar winner Gene Hackman, and for best-actor for 1979's "All That Jazz," the autobiographical Bob Fosse film.
He was also a Sea Cap'n in a TV show called SeaQuest or something.
The hack journalist who pigeon-holed Roy into Jaws should come down here and chum some of this sh*t.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I think that I liked every film that man ever did.
