The Wizard of Oz is one of cinema's most recognizable films ever produced. The iconic movie was released in 1939, often dubbed "Hollywood's Golden Year" for the number of films released during this time that became legendary and timeless classics. That year saw the release of films like Stagecoach, which was actor John Wayne's breakout role, and Gone With The Wind, one of the highest rated romances and the highest grossing film of all time.
How Much Were the Munchkin Actors Paid on 'The Wizard of Oz'? The Munchkins and the actors who played them are an interesting part of film history. Despite how integral they were to one of the most important movies of all time, the actors who played the Munchkins have been lost to time. In fact, none of them even got their names in the credits of the film.
In the years since The Wizard of Oz, there have been strong advancements to advocate for better treatment of little people across the country. The Little People of America is a non-profit organization that "provides support and information to people of short stature and their families." One of the leading founders of this organization was Billy Barty, an actor with dwarfism who helped bring attention to the misinformation and mistreatment of people like him.
