Best Tiny Characters in Movies...

[moreorless87]

Although I think that role would just about have been big enough for a supporting actor nom if the Oscars would dare touch it with a barge pole. A slightly smaller great Lynch film role...

Levon Helm as Mr. Rate, in Shooter (2007).



Mr. Rate : The world ain't what it seems, is it gunny?
Bob Lee Swagger : No Sir.
Mr. Rate : You keep that in mind. Moment you think you got it figured, you're wrong.

I use that last line IRL often.

You sound like a weirdo.

Like anyone needs to be told not to take things for granted, unexpected shit can happen.

I doubt anyone takes you seriously, bro.

Good call. I almost included Elias Koteas from the same film. His reaction when he's getting shot to bits is great. Rade Sherbedgia also was a small but impactful character in Shooter.

 

[DeJulez]

Bambi's mother played a pretty short role in her daughters autobiography.
The one and only deer to ever get their own major release movie.

Also Rudolph's favorite scene I've heard.

 

[Thrawn33]

Warwick Davis has had multiple tiny.roles.in star wars movies. And one in harry potter.

Plus he is a little person.

You forgot Willow..

Take your pick from Blackhawk Down

Vincent Schiavelli in Ghost

Schiavelli was the embodiment of 80's NYC molded into human flesh.

Darn I came for the little people.

Yeah, like John C. McGinley to Oliver Stone, or Bill Paxton to James Cameron, he was Milos Forman's guy. Forman knew he'd struck gold and kept using him every time out of the gate.

or Michael Bay with Peter Stormare. When an auteur meets his muse and create magic together.
