Arte Johnson


Arte played somebody named Sullivan. I looked for him but never saw him in the film. Was he cut or what? Who was Sullivan?

He was one of the agents who came to the door of the "typically suburban" family who helped Coburn's character hide out. He had one the best lines in the film, "Don't say Chinks, say Chinese. Chinks is un-American." :)

Thank you!

He has a (great) bigger scene later on at the yacht Schaefer is abducted onto - he's ready to shoot Schaefer, impatiently waiting for his lackey to fetch some bullets, absolutely unwilling to consider not shooting him because 'rules are rules' and he has orders signed by Henry Lux Himself.
