He was one of my favorite American actors.
I don't know how he was off screen but he seemed like the kindest man ever in interviews.
Jaws,marathon man and All that Jazz are films I can watch over and over again.
Can't say that about alot of films made today.

blumustard,
Great actor...by today's standards of special effects Jaws is from the stone age and it's hard to imagine that movie actually scared the hell out of us when watching it now, but Roy Scheider's acting abilities make it and all the other movies he was in well worth watching repeatedly.

His biggest breakthru will always remain Jaws to this day.
