"For the dispossessed, the excluded, the condemned, fallen from life and loving.� These words are typed across the screen at the outset of THE P-38 PILOT, Bruce Baillie's experimental video portrait of a former pilot outraged by old age and bitter with regrets. We hear the man's disputatious monologue on the soundtrack: "I'm not the kind of guy to end up in a slime pit... I can't understand it, see?� Baillie, an established master of 16mm cinematography, uses the video medium to search the man's confined space for rustling movements and leaking colors. Chet Baker sings "There Will Never Be Another You� as the filmmaker bids the pilot a peaceful adieu.
