Not to be mean or anything, but did it ever occur to Gloria that Stanley
might have been the "Dwarf," which would explain her running into him twice?
Shouldn't she have been a little suspicious of him?
By the way, don't people who are albinos generally have poor eyesight, which
would have been a drawback for Whitey Jackson's sharpshooting abilities in
the opera house?
I'm not crying, you fool, I'm laughing!
That occured to me too as I re-watched the film. I don't think Goldie is that tall but she towers over Moore! Still, he's not really short enough to be considered a dwarf.
shareHe isn't short enough to be considered a dwarf or even a midget. Anything under 4 foot 10 is considered a midget and he was just over 5 feet. Im only 4 feet tall and he would tower over me! When looking this up today I was very surprised to discover he wasn't shorter, I had always though he was closer to my height.
share4'10" may be considered the cut-off point for midgets but I don't think that 4' 9½" Mary Lou Retton, who won all-around gold in gymnastics at the 1984 Olympics, would be considered a midget. Her parents are both short.
Technically, he wasn't a dwarf, but it would have been a nickname for someone who was of below average size. Especially since the real "dwarf" referred to,
Rupert Stiltzkin, wasn't all that short.

Hewwo.
That actually was a very clever line or innuendo/pseudonym for the film. Stiltskin nicknamed such...Compared to his living [and deceased] marauders, as the shortest.
Cunningly I don't think the character Stanley had any relevance to it [though the side consideration or assumption is amusing]
