BIOGRAPHY
SYNOPSIS: Milla has been acting since
she was 11 years old. Her first taste of the silver screen came in Two Moon
Junction (1988) as Samantha, April's younger sister. The basic plot is that
April (Sherilyn Fenn) is to marry a man her snobby parents like but then falls
in love with a blue-collar stud named Perry. April must reconcile the
expectations of her family and her fiancé with the passion she feels for
Perry. Next came the made-for-TV movie The Night Train to Kathmandu (1988) in
which Milla plays Lily McLeod, the daughter of two American professors in
search of an ancient jewel in Kathmandu. Lily and her little brother Andrew
befriend Prince Joharv, a magical prince from another world. He needs the
jewel to get back to his world...but there's a greedy villain involved who
wants it strictly for it's monetary value. Great line from Milla: "Well you
certainly can't be in my bed without a ticket--and not even with one!!" Milla
also appeared on the TV show Paradise (1988). Before her next movie, Milla
appeared on Married...With Children (1989) as Yvette, a French exchange
student who becomes the center of attention at Kelly's high school. She also
played played Robin Fecknoids in the pilot episode of Parker Lewis Can't Lose
(1990). Amidst some controversy (she was just 15 years old), Milla played
Lilli in Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991), the sequel to Brooke Shields' 1980
classic The Blue Lagoon. The story is basically the same: a young boy
(Richard, played by Brian Krause) and girl are stranded together on a tropical
island for a number of years and must teach themselves and each other about
life, love, and survival.
