Mila Parély is a working actress with the unglamorous consistency that long careers are made of. Playing Félicie in 'Beauty and the Beast' put her in front of the widest audience of the career. 'The Rules of the Game' rounds out the better-known part of the filmography. The early stretch of the career is the part least seen today. Drama keeps coming back on the credit list. She has been working on screen for more than 93 years.
