The film tells the story of a man who comes to Hollywood to become a star, only to fail and be dehumanized. He is identified by the number 9413 written on his forehead, after which he dies and goes to Heaven, where the number is removed.

Directed by Robert Florey, with future Citizen Kane DP Gregg Toland handling the photography, this tale of the Hollywood Extra is a classic short from the era when the European avant-garde crashed onto American shores. Presented in a crisp transfer from our friends at Flicker Alley!
