	The Shooting DVD review on AudioRevolution.com
		The next day, a Woman (Millie Perkins), whose name is never revealed -- which annoys Gashade -- turns up at the camp, offering to pay Gashade handsomely to guide her to a town that's some distance off, beyond a dangerous desert.
		Perkins is also excellent as the enigmatic, bad-tempered woman, whose goals we're never sure of.
		On the commentary track, Perkins says 'The Shooting' is her favorite of all her movies, and it's easy to see why: it's an excellent role, complex, elusive, layered.

	The Witch Who Came from the Sea (1976)
		This is most effectively demonstrated by the beginning of the film, where we are introduced to Millie walking her two nephews on the beach and lecturing them about proper English, which all comes contrasted with flash fantasies away to seeing the muscle-builders in the background on the beach hung and gutted on their own equipment.
		Perkins expectedly gives a very good performance and conveys an absolute conviction in the complexities of the part.
		In the DVD featurette, Perkins tells about how Thom wrote the part for her, basing many elements — the childhood abuse and the father hiding in the closet — on his own life, while incorporating elements from hers — the fact that her father was a sea captain.

		Thom was married to star Millie Perkins at the time, so his screenplay for THIS movie is a vanity project.
		Perkins isn't much of an actress, though she is particularly good at seeming drugged out or hung over.
		The downside of this particular subgenre is that it requires a much better lead actress than Millie Perkins to pull it off (Perkins is certainly no Julie Harris or Susannah York).

		The commentary track features director Hellman, Millie Perkins and Dennis Bartok of the American Cinematheque, and though it's a bit spotty at first, settles into an excellent, informative and very warm chat about this movie, and low-budget filmmaking in general.
		Millie Perkins' comments on the track are especially interesting.

	Movie Database - [TV Guide Online] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		Millie Perkins seems too mature and too flat for the pivotal role in this touching film, based on the famous WWII diary of the young Anne Frank.
		Skillfully directed by George Stevens (who photographed much of the famous concentration camp footage after Germany's defeat), the film is told in flashback, as Anne's father Schildkraut, a camp survivor, returns to the warehouse attic in Amsterdam where his Jewish family hid from the "Green Police" (the Dutch Gestapo) for two years.
		Cramped in uncomfortable quarters, Schildkraut, his wife Huber, and their two daughters, Baker and Perkins, are sheltered through the kindness and courage of two Gentile shop owners.

		Another thing: I assumed that the Millie Perkins character was mother and wife respectively to the child and man that had been struck down in Winslow by Coen.
		Also at one point in their trek Gashade points out to the Millie Perkins character and Billy Spear that two horses passed on the trail they were following one of them being logically Coen and his horse.
		One explanation is that Millie was the wife and mother of the two.

		His landscapes dwarf the lost heroine of the picture, swallowing her whole in the ocean of her past, her obsession with television commercials, and the culture of machismo that manifests itself in 1976 Southern California as muscle beaches and professional football.
		Opening with Molly (Millie Perkins) telling a tale of her long lost sea captain father to her two nephews (shades, again, of The Fog), The Witch Who Came from the Sea finds its themes topical even when its presentation skews often and badly into the unfortunately-dated.
		Cundey's observations are the pithiest while Perkins reveals herself as unappealingly prim in her golden years.

	The Diary of Anne Frank - Millie Perkins, Shelley Winters (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
		George Stevens (Giant) directed this 1959 film adaptation of the hit play based on the writings of Anne Frank, the Jewish girl from Amsterdam who hid in an attic with her family and others during the Nazi occupation.
		As Anne, Millie Perkins is something of a milky eyed enigma and--in retrospect--too old for the part; but she is surrounded by an outstanding cast, including Joseph Schildkraut as Anne's patient father, Ed Wynn as a cranky dentist who moves into Anne's "room," and Shelley Winters as the loud Mrs.
		Stevens turns the many overlapping dramas of the caged characters into the foundation of Anne's growth as a young woman, ready for life and love just at the moment the dream comes to an end.

	filmcritic.com Movie Review: The Witch Who Came from the Sea
		Here's one Millie Perkins, who'd played Anne Frank and starred in a couple of Monte Hellman pictures, one opposite Jack Nicholson.
		Then there's the acting: Perkins was fine as Anne Frank (though, contrary to the press notes, she was not nominated for an Oscar), but here she's a banshee with a razor blade and sans a top.
		The blood effects -- as Millie plies her trade every 15 minutes -- are pathetic, with actors smearing ketchup across their necks and stomachs or squirting it on the set.

		The sodbuster, an old guy, lives with his wife and daughter, played by Millie Perkins, and as Jack says about her, "You don't talk much." True.
		The outlaw gang similarly hangs out in an isolated shack, and the vigilate posse, all men, ride wherever they think there's outlaws; one of them, seeing Abigail for the first time (Millie Perkins) mentions to his partner that she's a "cute piece" and that he'll be coming back to have a meal.
		They discover a cabin, where a grown daughter (Millie Perkins) and her mother suffer in servitude to the old man. Odd things happen.

		Following this is an audio commentary with Perkins, Cimber and Cundry all present, and which, while interesting at times, isn’t quite filled with the wealth of information and discussion that one might expect from people with such long and illustrious careers.
