Background Story: The Secret World of Hollywood Extras (Clip) | TCM

The story and the importance of the Hollywood background extra is finally told in a new TCM Original. You’ll hear from a “Hollywood Extra” as he tells of the triumphs and hardships of what it was like to work in Hollywood as just another face in the crowd—the daily grind, the hustle, the clothes they wore, the food they ate, the times they had and the pay they got for a long day’s work. TikTok and Instagram star ‪@tismejackieg‬ appears, reading the lips of these underappreciated actors within selected scenes. #SecretWorldOfHollywoodExtras #ClassicMovies #TurnerClassicMovies #TCM Connect with Turner Classic Movies: Visit TCM WEBSITE: https://bit.ly/4bXC5tZ Follow TCM on INSTAGRAM: https://bit.ly/4bYR1I6 Like TCM on FACEBOOK: https://bit.ly/4ehMIcB Follow TCM on X: https://bit.ly/3VD6dVz Follow TCM on TIKTOK: https://bit.ly/3VOMUsN Subscribe now to watch more classic film content from TCM http://spr.ly/6017cTBT Background Story: The Secret World of Hollywood Extras (Clip) | TCM    • Background Story: The Secret World of Holl...   TCM    / @turnerclassicmovies
