dear Roy Scheider,

What is it about your acting that I like so much?

I like your contained nature. And your observational, minimal method of character portrayal. Oh and your voice, not quite gravelly, not quite soothing but somewhere in between. Somehow always sounding 100% assured and undaunted.

Yet even if sounding a little rattled you are still able to pull it off and sound certain. Very, very certain.

As in one of the best lines ever uttered in film.

Of my 2 readers, I know one of them will immediately know of which I speak. The other reader will either be huffy with me because of course she knows this line or she will need major prompting from me while I try not to be huffy because WHO DOESN'T KNOW THIS LINE?

P.S. Roy Scheider,
your hunky-ness is undeniable.
