What Florey means is the life and death of one of Hollywood's thousands of extra people — a man practically without identity.
I am sure you will be interested in the way the film was made. It is really the strangest of stories. To begin with the two men took every foot of film with an amateur camera in the kitchen and bedroom of the artist, Vorkapitch.
They used 45 sets, all of which were made of dry cardboards, cigar-boxes and pieces of newspaper. The greatest amount spent on any one was $1.67. (Just compare this, for instance with F. W. Murnau's circus set at the Fox studio which cost $77,000).
By this time you have realized that The Life And Death of 9413 was for the most part shot in miniature. It has it's human cast, however, two people, Jules Raucourt and Voya Georges.

No one of these scenes occupies more than two feet of film. The total production runs only 1200 feet.

Eddie Foy, the famous clown, who died as he wished 'with his boots on,' was well beloved in Hollywood.
Jack Gilbert recalls that he made his debut on the stage as a member of Foy's company. Many years ago it was. In fact Jack was at the tender age of 1 year. He was carried on the stage by his mother, who was a leading lady in the Foy company.
Hollywood's new master of bon mots is William Powell.
Bill defines a production supervisor as a man who knows what he wants but can't spell it.
