I was in this damn thing


I was an extra playing 3 parts:
a gambling father
a guy with a clipboard tallying the scores
an extra near the stables
if anyone notices a very tall, doughy, sandy haired, baby faced young man dressed in jeans and a sport coat, you're lookin' at me, baby. i haven't seen it but i wonder if i can get an IMDB page now. fingers crossed.

You mean they couldn't even afford extras to play different people??? they had to double up on the extras???????

reply

Extras are not usually credited so no

Extras are paid by the hour most of the time. Reusing a person may mean that in that city there were not enough people in the pool to choose from. And seriously i have watched for myself and friends as extras and they are set up to be unremarkable and unrecognizable.

You can add your name to the movie if you're uncredited, but your name's page might not show any filmography (as in, it will remain blank) until you've got a credited role.

They changed that a while back; it used to be you could have uncredited roles only showing up on your page. Still, your name will be on the film title's page.

Did you get to meet "anyone?"

Did you ever see the movie?
