As noted above in her glamour shot, this film billed her as Mary Cuttin. Her act was well-featured in this picture, which was produced for Beatty by his great drinking pal, John Wayne, as a 1954 Wayne-Fellows effort out of Warner Bros.

Pat O'Brien delivered the eulogy for Beatty's funeral, July 22, 1965, in the Church of the Hills, at Forest Lawn Hollywood Hills. When Beatty-Cole day-and-dated Mr. O'Brien in Manassas, Virginia, in '81, I got to visit with him about the film and the eulogy. He was a most gracious gentlemen, doing dinner theatre there at 83.
