   Wow, trying to get the facts on some of the "little people" actors   
   since I have a large collection of them and one of them is the subject   
   of where to put him on my site...I got a signature recently from   
   Albert Wilkinson who I loved in Willy Wonka.  When I was writing,   
   someone told me he was a jawa and possibly a droid in Star Wars.   
   Another site lists Jedi.  Two other sites say he is appearing with   
   actors from Star Wars but was not in Star Wars.  So I find another   
   article that says he was, but no mention of what character or specific   
   film.  However, they go on to list Oompa Loompas.  This was   
   interesting because a couple other people claim to have been Oompa   
   Loompas and some photos show up to 10 Oompas... but David Wolper says   
   only 8.  Someone else said there were others in the wings in case one   
   didn't work out but didn't appear on screen.  Still a photo I've seen   
   does have at least 9.  There's no Rusty Geoff mentioned there but I've   
   seen many credits as him being one... and several others on a "little   
   people" website list Harry Potter and Willy Wonka as credits but   
   nowhere else does it say that.  I saw one time Felix Silla credited   
   for Willy Wonka (but I don't think so).   
      
   I've encountered this many times, with many people.  Not just little   
   people.  There are other jawas and Stormtroopers that most likely   
   weren't and so this makes me wonder:  how many out there do actually   
   lie on their CV's?  Hmmm.  I wonder if people lie about any film where   
   there are tons of people behind masks etc.   
      
   I usually ask for clarification in my letters, but sometimes, like   
   this one, there is no response outside of a signature.  The best thing   
   to do is get a hold of call sheets but even those aren't accurate.   
   I've seen and have a few and sometimes they just put generic terms on   
   there or spell names wrong.   
      
   So I wonder how many miscredited people there are out there!  Does   
   anyone have any in their collections that they wonder about?
