Maximus Wyld had his heyday in 1940s-50s Hollywood. Of mixed race black, Chinese and Amerindian descent, he was ""the actor with a thousand faces”, essentially interpreting ethnic roles: Indian chief, Mexican revolutionary, oriental dandy...A veritable reinterpretation of the myth of American cinema through the prism of minorities, Erased reveals the political and social dimension of Hollywood productions.
