That was veteran character actor Dub Taylor, who if you look him up on IMDB, you will probably see that he has appeared in over 200 movies.
shareWatch for Dub Taylor in Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. He has a bit part, but his knack for curmudgeon-like comedy was wonderful. And don't forget his great, great part in Bonnie and Clyde.

Earliest film I've seen with Dub is You Can't Take it With You, made in '38. In it he was married to Ann Miller who was 15 at the time.
shareThat's right; I recall catching that flick on TCM some years ago, and almost choked on my nightcap when Dub turned up in a small role. I had no idea that his career extended back that far.
