Name Pages: Show cast credits screen billing rank
I would like to see a number beside each role in an actor's credits showing the number at which the credit was listed.
Ex:
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0043081/
has cast list starting with
Complete credited cast:
Jane Powell...Patti Robinson
Ricardo Montalban...Demi Armendez
I would like to see on Jane Powell's page for this film that her character name was
Patti Robinson (billed: 1)
And on Ricardo Montalban's page:
Demi Armendez (billed: 2)
and so on, for all credited cast.
This is interesting for tracking the rise and fall of a career. (Of course, sometimes we get "special" billing for the biggest star that does NOT land first, but surrounding works will likely show the overall status.)

I fully understand your interest in tracking the career status. But don't major feature films credit their cast in order of appearance, which has very little to tell with the actual character importance in the film?
