The bad guy in Dirty Harry either had a REAL hard time getting any other parts, or never did.
Another bad guy that would get called out on the street was Bruce Dern, after he killed the Duke in “The Cowboys”.
I “think” the creep from Dirty Harry played a shiite brain police lieutenant in “Cobra”, but might be wrong.
YES! I was trying to remember his name to post it myself.
IMAGINE, anyone messing with John Wayne and not representing the depth of badest of the BAD. Great acting.
Ah, not a Star Trek fan I see...he was Odo from DS9.
Andy Robinson played the psycho killer so well in “Dirty Harry” that he complained that he was typecast and did indeed have a hard time getting acting roles as an ordinary person. He did play Harmon, Walter Matthau’s partner in crime in “Charlie Varrick.” I can’t think of him in another movie, although I’m sure he was in others.
Actually Andrew Robinson had a lot of work over the years as a bit character. He did get death threats after Dirty Harry though.
In Dirty Harry, the “Scorpio” character was played by Andrew Robinson. He is actually doing well, somewhat retiring from acting in 2005, he is now the Director of the Master of Fine Arts Acting program at the University of Southern California.

Bruce Dern did get some death threats after The Cowboys, and is still working, but sadly, he is such a leftist wacko that it taints his acting.
