It was the same year Jack Nicholson gave the finest performance of his career in "One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest." Both Shaw and Nicholson were fantastic. In other years, Shaw would have won.
Yeah, Jaws did not too well in academy Awards. I was dissappointed as a kid. I was 10 when I saw Jaws and 11 when I remember I saw some movie "One Flew Over Cuckoos Nest" beat "Jaws" in best picture. I did not even know what that movie was, then. lol "Jaws" was not even nominated for most all major type awards. I think just Best Picture, and Best soundtrack which it won. That's it. Thinking sharks were cool. I liked "Jaws. lol But yeah, Robert shaw gave a terrific, very memorable performance. Shaw, Scheider,, and Dreyfuss. 3 legends in acting now. I had my eyes closed in movie theatre through a lot of the moments in scenes where shark attacked them around and on the boat. lol Scary movie, especially for a kid who swam in ocean during summer vacations. Yet, I really, really liked it as a kid.
@@nycinstyle Yes your absolutely right, and to believe we hardly seen the Shark in Jaws...what we all didn't see. That's what scares us the most, that's what I call true horror. And Jaws should've definitely won more awards, even by how much it's looked as, as a classic these days. Think about it, I know for me...any shark movie, I think of Jaws. Even till this day, their have been so many movies that replicate the original movie poster.
Sterling Hayden (col.Ripper from dr.strangelove) was offered the role 1st by Steven Spielberg but,because of a back injury had to turn it down,Robert Shaw then was given the role and imo,made cinematic history.
Excellent writer too. He published multiple novels, with at least one winning awards and another, The Man in the Glaas Booth being adapted as a play and film.
41 years ago yesterday he passed. Way too soon. A charismatic character, wonderful actor and fine playwright. You are so very missed Robert. May you rest in peace.
Very truly missed. When you think of the films that came out just after he passed away, the differences if he participated in them is great food for thought. I wonder what his Colonel Kurtz would have been instead of Brando.
I love watching charismatic people holding court like this. Richard Harris, Richard Burton, Peter O'Toole, Oliver Reed and Robert Shaw were a special brand of actor from this period.
Yeah, an absolute bunch of pissheads. Every one of them ruined their own career to some extent. Don't get me wrong, they *were* brilliant actors, but they were more interested in the bottom of a bottle. The only one of that lot who came out the other side, undamaged, was Anthony Hopkins.
Yes most of them now have nothing to say or rather what they say isn't interesting but it's all about them and tv celebs are the same it's either their sexual bent or mental wellbeing ! 😱😬
Great interview! I'm willing to bet Mr. Shaw has NO IDEA how much this movie would mean to so many people 45 years later, and how much his performance would be lauded and imitated for all these years. R.I.P.
From what I understand, he never had any doubt that JAWS would be very successful, while everybody else thought it would flop and disappear. I wouldn’t doubt that story, as Robert Shaw had a big enough career at that point that he could see the bigger picture while all the doubters couldn’t see past the day-to-day minutiae and the hassles each day brought on the set.
A terrific actor! Also unforgotten in "The Sting" from 1973 as Doyle Lonnegan. The scene at the card game is unforgettable. Unfortunately, he never got an Oscar, as a quint he would have deserved it. I give the Oscar retrospectively to Robert Shaw! Rest in peace, my friend in spirit!
There was a playfulness about Shaw that would be stamped out today in our cancel culture world. It's why we have blank faced morons for actors nowadays.
"You know the thing about a shark.. he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a dolls eye... when he comes at ya, dont seem to be livin at all..." Greatest cinematic dialogue of all time
I saw Jaws in the theater as a kid back in 1975. It remains my all time favorite movie. I remember thinking back then that Robert Shaw was 'old' in this. I'm now officially older than he was when he died. You never think of being that old when you're a kid. It comes quick.
Love his classic and hilarious line in Jaws at the mayor/council meeting...."You can pay up or play it cheap and be on welfare for the winter. " Makes me laugh every time!!!
Ever been on welfare before? Well it's coming.. and I'm assuming because you laughed, you have a government job. Also assuming you voted for Biden. If these things are true your laughter will dissipate. 2 and a half years left of this insanity. Payback gonna be a bitch.
Fanatstic interview from 1974! I think this was the taping of the show, New England In A Day. There's also Scheider, Dreyfuss and Spielberg in the long version. Such a shame that Shaw never received an Oscar nomination for Jaws.
@@hesch-tag Bit late, but I have. Worth reading "The Flag". There's an old major in it who reminisces about WWI. Then watch the Indianapolis speech. (Was over 20 years ago that I read The Flag).
One of the BEST actors of all time.Miss a lot.A huge loss for cinema and specially the fact of dying so Young when he was just 51.I was about 1 year old in 1978 but I've always loved cinema as my dad did,and both enjoy his films quite a lot.I think It IS very unfair when someone dies so Young,whoever..Never forget him❤
I knew this man was English a long time ago. Loved his character in Jaws tremendously. However, it’s so amazing to see him be himself as an English man.
I first watched Jaws when I was arguably between 8-10, Quint's death scene had a huge impact on me, I had never seen anything like it. Such a great movie. Robert Shaw pulled a great performance, it's still sad that he left the world too soon.
Completely agree. The death scene still haunts me and I’m in my 40s. That’s how amazing the film is. Kids watching Jaws wouldn’t appreciate the Indianapolis scene. They hone in on the shark and its attacks
One of best roles and performances ever. Shaw was so much ahead of his time, attention to detail whatever happens on the "Orca" ....fantastic. Quint WAS the movie Jaws, no matter how brilliant Spielberg, Scheider, Williams and the others were
1:13 -" Scotch, Vodka, Gin, whatever" Cheers to you Mr. Shaw! He is a true character actor of the highest quality. Brilliance in A Man For All Seasons as King Henry VIII.
I remember when I was a kid growing up on the coast with my grandmother watching jaws, then going for a swim scared the crap out of me only for a short while,, . This brings back awesome memory's for me.. great time in my life.. was ment to be. Thanks for sharing this..
Poor Robert was in a remote area of Rural Ireland when he had his Heart Attack with no access to a telephone, We can only speculate that if he was in a big town or near a hospital he might have been saved. Only 51 when he died, RIP to the great man.
I'm from an older generation but I must agree with you Mark. Actors like Shaw had a playfulness and depth of character about them that wouldnt be acceptable these days.
If anyone found this interesting, go and see The Shark is Broken at the ambassador theatre. Staring Ian Shaw, Roberts son. All about the 3 actors on the boat behind the scenes. Brilliant!!!
I agree, I've just seen The Shark is Broken🦈, it was brilliant, very funny and also moving. Ian Shaw is utterly brilliant portraying his charismatic father to perfection. I recommend if you are in London then and see it. It ends with Ian delivering the Indianapolis speech every bit as brilliantly as his wonderful father.
I'd never heard Robert Shaw in just a normal interview; now I realize he thoroughly hid the accent in the film. Anyway, it was a lucky actor to get to play a mad Ahab in an iconic film.
I love it when he calls out the rich folks of Martha’s Vineyard where I’m sure he would not be welcome for too long. Put enough scotch in him and he’d point out all the hypocrisy that resides there. Damn fine actor!! Cheers!!
I would pay for Robert Shaw's supper and drinks at the pub for a week just to hang out with him and pray I don't say something stupid. What an incredible man and talent.
His brother was our local family doctor for many years, and he looked very like Robert, and sounded similar too, although Dr Shaw wasn't quite as famboyant. Both had they same piercing eyes.
When I heard his real voice, I realized how talented he was. Rest In Peace
Me too, I just thought his real voice was Quints voice but it definitely isn't!

Yeah gone way to soon, that's what hard living *can* bring. My all time favorite British actor.
He had 10 children, so I am guessing there are a lot of grand children out there. It is shame he has missed out on that.
Bon Scott of AC/DC said I am here for a good time, not along time.

Probably one of the three best cast actors for any film. Outstanding chemistry between them.
Lee Marvin was originally first choice for Quint but had other arrangements he would of been great I think..
@bazzatc01 Lee Marvin actually wanted to go fishing and given his reputation, he'd have probably wanted to hunt down a Great White shark!! Lol!!
What a charming interview. Very genuine. Nothing like this on TV today

I found Shaw to be a fascinating human being.
"You know the thing about a shark.. he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a dolls eye... when he comes at ya, dont seem to be livin at all..."

Shaw was a character, full of humour, it seems. Great actor...
He Seems so sweet, charming and funny in this interview.. And Wow an actor!!
One of the greats!
The local dentist probably wasn’t fond of Shaw for telling the reporters he was loose with the lips about people’s secrets
This guy was a badass, even as a bond villain in frwl. He starred in two important movies of the 20th century. May he RIP 🙏🏼
Great interview, it's funny but I get the feeling that Mr Shaw at this time didn't realise how big and great Jaws was gonna be just around the corner.
He does perfectly embody the grizzled old sea-dog, like no one else could do!
Robert Shaw was a Boss, like Connery! 🥰🥰
It was a damn shame he didn't win an Oscar for his performance as Quint. He made the movie!
His son is the spitting image of this guy. It's crazy.
His description of Martha’s Vineyard rings true to this day. Amazing 🤣
A very rugged looking man he was the perfect choice to play a fisherman.
God that smile. So handsome
If anyone found this interesting, go and see The Shark is Broken at the ambassador theatre. Staring Ian Shaw, Roberts son. All about the 3 actors on the boat behind the scenes. Brilliant!!!

There was probably more hypocrisy in the west coast of Ireland, where he lived.
none of the staying in character nonsense, great great actor, missed in cinema immensely
Fantastic actor!
Gosh, this story is hilarious. I laughed out loud when he said you would get the part if you didn‘t do it. I miss that kind of humour
He's simply awesome!
I never realized how his natural speaking voice was so much different than his Quint voice in the movie.
He was born Lancashire England and spoke with Northern England accent in real life
One of the greatest ever for me.
I would pay for Robert Shaw's supper and drinks at the pub for a week just to hang out with him and pray I don't say something stupid. What an incredible man and talent.
His brother was our local family doctor for many years, and he looked very like Robert, and sounded similar too, although Dr Shaw wasn't quite as famboyant. Both had they same piercing eyes.
Robert Shaw was a Lancashire lad. And also the best thing about Jaws
Also grew up in the Orkney Isles (in a fishing town). My relatives knew his family.
