    How do you rank him as an actor?

    Workmanlike, but not very memorable. I loved "The Natural" but have a hard time thinking of much else I'm really a fan of. "The Sting", "Butch Cassidy" maybe.

    Always had a certain charisma, but I don't think he was ever much of an "actor".

    "Three Days Of The Condor" is one of the best movies ever

    He was also very good in "The Last Castle".

    It's just a classic, tense from beginning to end

    Max Von Sydow is fantastic as the hitman

    All the President's men was pretty good, I thought. But then, everything with Dustin Hoffman in it is at least pretty good.

    Has anyone seen The Sting? That's meant to be good, but I haven't watched it.

    'Sneakers' is probably my favorite movie from him. That and 'The Sting' I can watch almost anytime.

    The Sting is good.

    Robert Shaw was a great actor, indeed.
