    Question...
    Who is a character that had roughly 15 minutes or less in a film but had a huge impact on it ?

    I’ll start
    The car lot attendant in Ferris Bueller’s Day Off

    Unwanted digression: ^ Why did Salma Hyek find it necessary to get breast implants?

    *******

    Pretty Woman. Hector Elizondo as Barney Thompson was brilliant.

    But his screen time might exceed the 15 minute limit.

    ********

    Beverly Hills Cop. Bronson Pinchot as Serge. Art gallery scene.

    Marcellus Wallace is a very important guy in Pulp Fiction but isn’t on screen much.

    Branson Pinchot as Serge in Beverly Hills Cop.
    It was hard to keep up with Eddie in those days.
    Pinchot kept up and went right past him.

    He was killed off early in the movie but gave a great performance:

    I'm necroposting. As some things about Alec Baldwin's temper came to light maybe he wasn't acting much. Kinda of like Tom Cruise as the self-absorbed narcissistic Charlie Babbitt in Rain Man.


    Edit...Levon Helm in The Three Burials of Melquiades Estrada.

    I can't find an actual name for his character; it's generally called The Old Man With A Death Wish, or The Eccentric Old Man.
