I searched for it a couple of hours today since almost everything are somewhere on the web, but no luck finding it. Maybe someone with more knowledge than me will be able to locate it (the real deal or just a scanned copy).

I can find many actors in that list wit one crdeit andothers (uncredited) with 25 or more. This proves what exactly. (pulls hair)

Good lord Skip. Try actually READING what I wrote please.

I wasn't trying to prove anything. Not once did I say "this proves something!!!!!!" I did a test, for my own curiosity sake, to see how many of the uncredited, IN MY OWN LOCAL, were only credited for that film.

Sorry that me testing stuff out in my own local is so offensive to you. Hope you didn't hurt yourself too badly ripping out your hair for no reason what-so-ever.
The night is calling. And it whispers to me soflty come and play.

Crazy glue is the way to go... stuff sticks like shiitake mushroom. Glued my fingers together once... it was a nightmare to get them apart...

Cast from Turner Classic Movies, since their cast and crew information came from the American Film Institute (AFI) it seems like a reliable source to me. They list 174 names including the credited one.

I agree that would be a reliable source.

1. Yes, I would consider AFI highly reliable.

2. You have not provided a source.

I have 255 of these uncredited actors in more than one film in my local database, 25 of them are in 10 or more films in my local. I'm glad I was able to download this profile before the success of any effort to remove them.

There's a link at the bottom of each film record. You can contribute or correct errors for any record.

I am familiar with this from my IMDB contribution background. The IMDB data was sourced from the Roadshow program. This was discussed and vetted on their contribution board.

The 1243 extras are listed in the original program for the film, so the best way to know is to find someone who have it and scan this part of the program... of course it's highly improbable that someone here own it.

Whistles, I saw it in the theaters and don't remember that. I wonder if I can find a copy, digital or otherwise. Would like to have it.

Could this be the one?  http://www.antiqbook.com/books/bookinfo.phtml?nr=1170021803&Language=en

A mite pricey, but might be worth it for someone.
