Has recently started his American film career, notably in The Sting and The Taking of Pelham One Two Three. A heavy drinker and great raconteur. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Shaw_(actor) .

Richard Dreyfuss: White, male, 27, 5’5, Jewish. Beginning his film career and has ambitions of being a great stage actor. Incredible frustrated with being stuck with an overbudget, overscheduled shoot for a film that seems destined to flop. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Dreyfuss .

Roy Scheider: White, male, 42, 5’9. A former welterweight champion boxer. Has recently achieved success and an Oscar nomination in supporting roles. Much calmer than his two costars but none-the-less equally frustrated with the endless shoot. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roy_Scheider .
