I have an xml file that has more data than I want to map to my objects.

I can skip singly occuring elements with a structure with just a name that is 
marked optional.  However, how can I handle unbounded elements that I don't 
want to map?  

The Aws wsdl has lots of these.   
http://aws-beta.amazon.com/AWSAlexa/AWSAlexa.wsdl

For example, say I get an item like the one below back and I don't want the 
actor element in the itemattributes section.  I could put three structures in, 
but then as soon as I get a movie with 4 actors listed, it will break.
