Many thanks.
how about you populate the movie list just for the selected actor?
like keep the vertical list of actors on a fixed list
and open the list of movies for the selected one only (and the bio)
than you can do one of your very cool animation to push the movie list back to the left if selected...
just my 25c.
(I also believe that you could eaily populate the movie list with a node just like you can do for movies in a set, without the need for a script) -edit : maybe not

would still require one API call for every actor. not worth it.

that's true if you want to pull a list of movies NOT in your library, but If you want to just populate with stuff you have something like this is what I had in mind:
<content>$INFO[Container(%d).ListItem.ID_OF_THEACTOR,videdb://movies/actors/]</content>
i tested using static numbers for ID_OF_THEACTOR and it works.
<content>plugin://script.extendedinfo?info=albuminfo&&id=$INFO[Container(6013).ListItem.Property(id)]</content>
13:45:14 T:7748 ERROR: InputStream: Error opening,
13:45:16 T:4100 ERROR: Previous line repeats 7 times. *(This number depends how many track in the list)*

I can only do that for my custom "script-ExtendedInfo Script-dialogvideoinfo.xml" though. I still have some work to do so that you can use that custom xml instead of DialogVideoInfo.xml. When I have it done then you will basically just put a RunScript(script.extendedinfo,info=extendedinfo,dbid=$INFO[ListItem.DBID]) in your DialogVideoInfo.xml onload tags and leave that dialog empty. You will only need to skin the script dialog then which can also be used for lot of other stuff. (I plan to add an option so that the onclick of lists generated by ExtendedInfo (--> plugin://....) will open that dialog instead of starting the movie/trailer)
Hope that´s understandable, sometimes hard to explain stuff like that in non-native language
