I think Berle would be a natural as an extra in the movie business. Most of the job is sitting around, punctuated by bursts of activity in 30 second spurts that seem to be repeated almost endlessly, followed by sitting around, etc. Pay isn’t all that good, but it is a paid job, and benefits include free food.
My experience as an extra came on the NBC series, Revolution, during the 2013-2014 season. It was interesting – a bucket-list sort of thing – but not something I’ll probably do again. George Burns last film – was that “Radioland Murders?”

That’s a good point. I was actually an extra in George Burns’ last movie. I was on camera for four seconds. $75 bucks….well earned.
