I remember a giant and a midget were friends. The midget was the brains of the operation. The giant got a job hammering tent stakes for a show or circus but wouldnt take the job unless they hired the little person too. Somehow the little person gets murdered but they make it look like an accident. He has a deathbed scene with the giant. I saw this as a little kid and it traumatized me. Cant find it! Don’t know what it is called!
Those scenes were from “The Bride”(1985). You can watch the full movie here, but the sound quality is poor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwn5MojAhQc
The tent stake scene at the circus is at around 36:47 and the midget death scene is at around
59:47.
