Robert is Quint. I can't possibly even contemplate anyone else in that role. All his mannerisms, his yelling and screaming, the mumbling to himself as the shark approaches, his commanding presence, the rum, the lines, Hooper drives the boat Chief. On and on. Robert was magic in that role.

There are, technically, 4 “Jaws” movies. All of them have at least some great acting by great performers in them; but the latter three utterly pale in comparison to the first, and that’s in large part due to that alchemical mix of Shaw, Dreyfus, and Schieder. Particularly Shaw… I agree, I cannot see another actor pulling that role off. It might be my favorite movie character of all time. One of my favorite scenes is when they’re heading out, and Quint is just yelling (“nor’easter coming…rig for depth charge… yo ho ho…” etc), seemingly having the time of his life. Robert Shaw IS Quint.

@@chrisradzion2148 To me there is only one film. Jaws!! It is absolutely epic in every way. A fabulous story with great characters. I don't care about the other films. Roy did the best he could with the material out of a contractual obligation. You'd think the FX dept would be perfecting the shark as they went but it got goofier looking. That I will never understand. Jaws 4 ? this looks like a great white shark? Really? It makes me appreciate Bruce all the more. Jaws isn't really even about the shark. It is about 3 guys and how they figure each other out in order to fight the shark. Yes the Out to Sea sequence is fabulous. I love iconic shots. The shot of the Orca framed in the Jaws with Williams music. Chills every time. I've never gotten a chill from any of the sequels. Except maybe the scene in Jaws 2 where the dorsal fin comes up behind the boats at night. I thought that was well done.

@@roquefortfiles my sentiments are the same: the first is the only real one. The others are all derivative, and that’s just going by the story/script. The first film that came out is something special. I’ve always thought that the driving force of the movie was the story of the three men going out to kill the shark, not necessarily “the shark” (who takes prominence in all of those sequels). And in a turn of events, I think the problems they had with Bruce, being forced not to show the shark (or, when they had to, using real shark footage, like the cage scene) made the film way more thrilling. But it really is the acting of those three men, Shaw the most imho (no disrespect to Dreyfus or Schieder, both great actors), that makes that movie a masterpiece. It’s one of a handful of movies where, if it’s on TV and I mange to catch it halfway through, I’ll inevitably end up sitting down and watching till the end, and will likely try to rewatch entirely in the next couple of days.

Ian is definitely his Father's son! Thank you for posting this interview!

IT'S SCARY HOW MUCH HE DOES😨😨😨😨LOVE JAWS🐋🐳💕💕💕💕

So much of the power of Jaws was the casting. The choices of actor for character was perfection from Spielberg. The fact they didn't get along and made each other so antsy, in reality, played perfectly into blooming the performances, and the final film. 👌

It is amazing how much that young man looks like his father, at the same age.

I'd say it's safe to assume Robert likely saw Richard in acting terms the same way Quint saw Hooper in seamanship terms.

Amazing how much Ian looks like his dad. Quint always was and always will be my favorite character in Jaws.

Jaws is an unbelievable film. One of the best ever. The "feud" between them just added to acting. Robert Shaw was one great actor. But I am sure a real tough nut to crack.

The interplay between those 3 male leads really elevated JAWS to a masterpiece level…it’s essentially a MONSTER story but it’s so much better than that with the 3 characters on the boat. When QUINT is introduced into the movie it really takes off! It seems to me that Dreyfuss’s character , an annoying young academic, was a perfect foil for ROBERT SHAWS QUINT, survivor of the USS Indianapolis. The conflict helped.

I hope Ian and Richard meet again one day. So they can talk privately at first and then hopefully come on a podcast together like this one. I saw Richard on that Irish chat show and he met one of Roberts granddaughters. You could tell he was honoured to meet her and tell her stories about her grandad and behind the scenes on Jaws. He was so nice and kind and thoughtful with her. They both filled up with emotion talking about her granddad. Really, really lovely to see. 😊

Wow, he resembles his late father physically, yet unlike his father he's at peace with himself and the world. Robert Shaw was a brilliant actor but a troubled soul, that came across clearly in interviews. It's heartening to see his son doesn't carry that angst. Shaw bullied Richard Dreyfuss on the 'Jaws' set, there's no two ways about it. Dreyfuss and the late Roy Scheider have spoken about his macho challenges to the younger actor to jump from the boat's mast, do 20 press ups etc. It was petty, macho stuff. Dreyfuss admired Shaw, so it was tough for him to compute - but Shaw did this to men frequently. There are even examples of it when he guested on TV chat shows - he couldn't help himself!

I was about 6 when I first watched Jaws in the mid 80s. Even at that young age It left an impression, and it's one of my favourite films. A film of two halves and the 3 main actors are what make it such a great film. Any talk of it is still a pleasure to listen to all these years later.

I couldn't believe Robert Shaw was only 48 in that film.

I thought it was Robert in the thumbnail, and the interviewer was Robert's son lol. Damn.. spitting image.

What's funny to me is I can see Robert Shaw and Richard Dreyfuss in Ian. If Ian grows a beard and wears the glasses he becomes Hooper. That being said Robert, Roy and Richard's performance in Jaws was absolutely fantastic.

The fact that he’s exactly like his father is probably why Richard was not delighted at first 😂

The dichotomy of the tree personalities is what makes the story so amazing and engaging. Perhaps Robert was hard on Richard off camera, but, that strife and generally precarious dynamic between them shows onscreen in the most effective way.

Shaw was already a veteran stage and screen actor at this point, and while Dreyfuss was quite young and inexperienced, he apparently came in with a cocky, overconfident attitude that rubbed Shaw the wrong way. Roy Scheider said that Shaw thought Dreyfuss needed to be slapped down a few pegs, so he kept making fun of him and humiliating him with physical challenges and dares. He'd say, "I'll give. you $100 bucks if you climb the mast of the ship and jump off" and teased him for his small stature and weight. Shaw would try to psych Dreyfuss out just before filming started by quickly saying, "Watch out for your mannerisms!" and other critiques. And of course Shaw's alcoholism didn't help the situation. When Dreyfuss dropped Shaw's drink in the sea, Shaw turned a firehose on Dreyfuss' face!

Everyone is commenting about how much he looks like his father forgetting his beautiful tragic mother Mary Ure

People are complicated, and sometimes it’s hard to see at the time what their true feelings and motivations are. Complicate that more by adding alcoholism, and just all the trappings of making a film under less than perfect conditions. I really do believe, as I think Dreyfus now does, that Shaw was teasing him, nagging at him, etc… to make both of their performances better, and also make Dreyfus overall a better actor, and maybe a better person. Sometimes it takes years, and lots of thought and life experience to see that. I think so much of what’s come out in years after has really borne that out. I’m biased, though. Robert Shaw’s performance as Quint is my favorite in any movie I’ve ever seen.

He could've gone without the mustasch and sideburns and haircut. But he must love the "Are you related to the Jaws guy?"

The son resembles the father very much. Both very handsome and talented! I think Robert saw Richard as a little wayward it seemed he was trying to help him become better, like when he was talking about weight and sloppiness almost like a father/uncle figure, but being very critical and stern.

Love this interview!! Jaws fan🙋‍♀️💯💙

Wonderful see to you treading the boards again, you’re a great talent Ian

Looks like a young Michael Palin trying to play Robert Shaw.

Everybody else said the same thing I looked at the second I saw him for the first time. I mean the first camera shot of him reminded me of Shaw's portrayal of the fisherman and Jaws. And it would not take much for him to match up to his dad in the Sting as far as makeup goes. Amazing likeness.

went to watch the show and it was brilliant, absolutely loved it.

I need to see this in the next couple months!

How great that this play is launched and doing well congratulations 😂 I grew up spending time at Robert Shaws home in Coleshill as my father Percy Herbert and he were great friends And i do recall Bob regularly challenging me to a game of tennis as i played quite well as a child- looking back it was funny because he would say Come on Katrina lets play tennis im going to beat you ! I think i gave him a run for his money but i was 10 years old at that time lol ! We kept our donkeys in their field during those days - what memories we had 😊

The reason the "chemisty" between Quint and Hooper work so well in the film is largely in part because of the tension and distain between them. It was brilliant scenes between them that makes the film so memorable and special.

I can't believe how much he looks like his Dad.

Now THAT'S a CLONE!!! 😳

The absolute spit of his father

From what I've heard in interviews, Shaw used to goad Dreyfuss a lot. Personally, I just want to remember them as the characters in the film. They were so good in it.

Of all the characters in the movie I believe Robert Shaw was the only one that was irreplaceable, in regards to the other characters I could see other actors in their roles.

My goodness its like I am looking at Robert Shaw again, sometimes you can see certain parts of the face and you know but when you look at him he is the spits of his Father.

"You all know Me, You all know what I do for a living"

How in the world has he not starred in “son of Quint-don’t forget your rubbers chief”

That’s wild. Never seen such a likeness.

Wow. THAT apple didn't fall far from the tree... Ian looks almost exactly like his dad in his early movies. As for Dreyfuss v. Shaw, I've watched a few interviews about this. Dreyfuss has mellowed on the issue quite a bit, and while he's forgiven some things he hasn't forgotten anything. I've known men in my life who were cut from a very similar mold as Shaw. They can be... unpleasant... when they think you're not giving 100% at what you're doing. You get frustrated as Hell at them and scream, 'What do you want from me!", and they just answer, 'More." For a young man, that's never an easy right of passage. For a young, kind of 'soft' Jewish actor in his first big movie, it must have been a horrible experience and I can see why Dreyfuss held a grudge. But Dreyfuss wouldn't be half the actor he is without Shaw pushing him past the breaking point. There's a grain of truth in the old adage that you learn the most from the teachers you hate.

Omg Ian shaw is the actual spit image of his late great father!

He looks just like his father, an actor I really like. I managed to read Man in a Glass Booth and it was an excellent read.

People don't have to like each other; acting is just a job like all other jobs.

Shaw was a first-class actor.
