Here's another one that hasnt been posted(and Ive looked through the entire thread).

Danny DeVito as Martini, one of the residents of the asylum when Randall McMurphy arrives in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

Has like one or two lines total.

[/ QUOTE ]

[the inmates are playing cards and betting with cigarettes]
Martini: [rips a cigarette in half] I bet a nickel.
McMurphy: Dime's the limit, Martini.
Martini: I bet a dime.
[Puts the two halves onto the table]
McMurphy: This is not a dime, Martini. This is a dime.
[shows a whole cigarette]
McMurphy: If you break it in half, you don't get two nickels, you get [censored]. Try and smoke it. You understand?
Martini: Yes.
McMurphy: You don't understand.

also harrison ford in american graffiti is a better answer than apocalypse now, though both are good

[/ QUOTE ]

Speaking of American Graffiti, who was the elusive blonde in the sportscar?

[/ QUOTE ]

Suzanne Somers, later of TV's Three's Company.
She apparently had a bit role earlier in Bullitt.

Jim McGinley (Better known as Dr. Cox on Scrubs) in The Rock. He played one of Gen. Hummel's mercenaries.

[/ QUOTE ]

John C. McGinley, and he was also in Platoon, Wall Street, and Point Break...which were 5-10 years before "The Rock".

[/ QUOTE ]

He's also in Office Space (he's one of the Bobs), which I doubt qualifies, but there he is.

John C. McGinley is in almost every Oliver Stone movie.

He is also in Seven as the leader of the SWAT team that busts into where the "Sloth" guy is being held captive. No lines and mostly covered by a face shield, but that's him.

This is my first post in this thread that completely disobeys the rules, because he was obviously well-known before this.

Seinfeld is huge with these (I think they qualify).

Grace from Will and Grace played Jerry's girlfriend in an episode.

Nate from Six Feet Under played an anti-semitic guy in the limo in an episode.
