RIP Roy Scheider
I feel strangely sentimental about him, moreso than many other entertainers who have passed away. Maybe it’s because I grew up with his movies, or maybe it’s something about his everyman style. He was always so *earnest*. And even though he was playing some pretty old characters already 10-20 years ago, it still seems strange that he was 75. Regardless, my respects to Mr. Scheider.
