I think of Blood Simple (1984) when I think of him. Usually think of him talking to the teenage girl outside his VW Beetle.


Absolutely. First thing I thought of. So weird in that role. But it's a Coen movie, and the first one, and they brought the weird out of him.

Walsh was a fine character actor. Very creepy in Blood simple.

H.I. : Bill Roberts?

Machine Shop Ear-Bender : No, not that mother-scratcher. Bill Parker. Anyway, we're approaching the wreck, and there's this spherical object a restin' in the highway. And it's not a piece of the car.
