- Hang-dog face
- Chunky, rotund frame
- Loud, loquacious characters
- Often cast as seemingly bellicose but harmless loudmouths, cast chillingly against type in Sang pour sang (1984).
- Critic Roger Ebert so admired him that he created the "Stanton-Walsh Rule," which states that "no movie featuring either Harry Dean Stanton or M. Emmet Walsh in a supporting role can be altogether bad." Ebert later admitted this rule was broken by Wild Wild West (1999), in which Walsh appeared.
- Has been deaf in his left ear since age three.
- Was roommates with actor William Devane in college.
- Appeared in the pilot episode of The Bob Newhart Show (1972).
- The 'M' in his name stands for Michael.
- I'm being paid for what I'd do for nothing.
- I approach each job thinking I may die of a heart attack, so it had better be the best work possible.
- I don't have an ego when I get the work. If I'm playing a doctor I want you to see a doctor. I don't want you to see an Emmet Walsh doctor and that's I think been the confusion with my career. People know my work, but they don't know who I am. I've always had fun hiding in the character.
