midget

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'wee' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'half-way through good spielberg film' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'way' could be 'e' (Compass direction - East) and 'e' is present in the answer.
'good' could be 'g' (abbreviation) and 'g' is found within the answer.
'film' could be 'm' (1931 Fritz Lang film) and 'm' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for midget that I've seen before include "Happy for one" , "Little person" , "Dwarf" , "Manikin" , "Very small" .)
