His portrayal of the pimp Frank Ligourin in Klute was the first time I ever laid eyes on Roy Scheider, and even at a young, impressionable age I got why Jane Fonda’s Bree Daniels found it tough to leave him–and the life–behind. In the matter of Roy, you couldn’t look away–not in Klute or Jaws,…

Yep, Norma Desmond, they definitely had faces back then. But today’s actors have eyes, and as two of the holiday’s notable releases demonstrate, you’d do well not to be caught in their headlights. Talk about bogey men: in Sweeney Todd, the trajectory of the title character can be found in the ravaged circles lining Johnny Depp’s customarily demented orbs, etched as…
