the life and death of 9413 a hollywood extra
The artist John
Jones receives his number from a man behind a desk, Mr. Almighty, who writes it
on his forehead.
The star has a
mask of passion, a mask of villainy, and an auguste
mask of pure vacancy. 9413 has but the one, sort of human-looking. He dies
(film snipped) and goes to Heaven, where his number is rubbed out and a pair of
wings supplied.
The settings are
an abstract of Hollywood with actuality footage (sound stages, premieres).
