I was watchng Angels in the Outfield last night and noticed that Adrien Brody and Matthew McConaughey were both in it and had no lines, basically extras.

So post some old movies where famous actors were extras

Yeah, I was watching that last night on TBS and was like "I had no idea all these people were in this movie".

Pretty solid movie, btw.

Matthew McConaughey was in Lone Star and had very few lines. I loved this movie and recommend it. John Sayles is an excellent Director and Kris Kristofferson is the man in this movie.

It was shocking to see Benicio Del Toro play a drug lord's lackey in the James Bond movie "License to Kill". Looks like BDT found his life's calling there.

Yeah, he played Danny Hemerling, IIRC. He was like the worst hitter on the team, but the kid told Knox to put him in for their best hitter cause he had an angel. Right?

Chris Rock was a valet in beverly hills cop2, so maybe it was a favor.

Yeah, LOL. Love Beverly Hills Cop 1 & 2.

It was actually Ep. I that she was in. Sofia Coppola also plays one of the handmaidens. And I thought I read somewhere that one of the other handmaidens wound up being somebody famous. Can't find it on IMDB, though.

Her name is Keisha Castle-Hughes, 1/2 Australian 1/2 New Zealander I think.

Not really that minor. Every time I hear mention of the "Brat Pack" (i.e., basically every young star that appears on "The Outsiders"), Tom Cruise's name is lumped in there somewhere.

Yeah, it's minor. He doesn't do much at all. C. Thomas Howell, Matt Dillon and Emilio Estevez are the main characters.
