I actually thought he was already dead, but even so it's still crap to hear.

He had a great career, was well respected and lived to 75. Congrats on a life well-lived!

My friend, a fellow movie buff, said there was something cool and easy about Scheider: a commanding presense, yet at the same time mellow.

I can't believe it's been over 30 years since "Jaws" freaked out a nation...
