  • The Secret Life and Final Days of Robert Shaw, Quint in Jaws.
    Robert Shaw was a British actor, novelist, and playwright born on August 9, 1927, in Westhoughton, Lancashire, England. He began his career on stage in London's West End before transitioning to film and television. Shaw is perhaps best known for his portrayal of Quint in the 1975 blockbuster film Jaws and his role as the villainous Donald Grant in the 1963 James Bond film From Russia with Love. He was also nominated for an Academy Award for his role in the 1966 film A Man for All Seasons. Aside from his acting career, Shaw was an accomplished writer, with several novels and plays to his name. He passed away on August 28, 1978, at the age of 51.

    The USS Indianapolis speech is the greatest monologue in film history. And Shaw doesn't even look or sound like himself as Quint. Now that's acting.

    Check out the trailers for this play as his sons Portrayal of his father is uncanny.
