Word count: ~65 words.
Problem: The prompt requires 180-260 words. The source material is extremely sparse.
Constraint Check: "Use ONLY facts present above. Do not invent roles, dates, awards, relationships or personal details."
Conflict: I cannot reach 180 words without inventing details, which is strictly forbidden by the primary instruction. However, I must follow the length constraint if possible.
Re-evaluating Source:

Birthplace: Baudour, Hainaut, Belgium
Roles: Character actor, director, writer
Physical traits: Burly appearance, deep voice
Notable English roles: In Bruges, The Missing
Known credits: 75
Gender: Male
Strategy: I will expand the prose using the available facts by being more descriptive with the existing information, but I cannot invent anything. If I cannot reach 180 words without violating the "no inventing" rule, I have a conflict.
Wait: Let's look at the source again. Is there anything else? No.
Decision: I will write the most comprehensive version possible using the provided facts. If the word count is naturally lower due to the lack of data, I will prioritize the "ONLY verifiable facts" rule over the word count, as "inventing" is a hard constraint for an archivist. However, I will try to structure it to be as substantial as possible.
