Thelma Parr (October 19, 1906 – February 13, 2000) was a motion picture actress from Oregon. She is best remembered for her roles in Mack Sennett comedies as one of the Sennett Bathing Beauties. Parr, reportedly a descendant of Thomas Paine, was considered by film critics to be one of the most beautiful brunettes in Hollywood films.
She was married to banjo player, William E. Goman, in Santa Ana, California on May 21, 1925. Parr obtained a divorce decree from Goman in April 1930. Parr's film career was ended by a car accident in which she received facial injuries in March 1928. Her mouth was badly mutilated when she was thrown against a windshield of an auto in which she was a passenger. She was also cut on her neck and arms.
Thelma Parr died in San Clemente, California in 2000, aged 93.
Legends of the Fall is a 1994 American epic drama film directed by Edward Zwick and starring Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Aidan Quinn, Julia Ormond and Henry Thomas. Based on the 1979 novella of the same title by Jim Harrison, the film is about three brothers and their father living in the wilderness and plains of Montana in the early 20th century and how their lives are affected by nature, history, war and love. The film's time frame spans the decade before World War I through the Prohibition era, and into the 1930s, ending with a brief scene set in 1963. The film was nominated for three Academy Awards and won for Best Cinematography (John Toll). Both the film and book contain occasional Cornish language terms, the Ludlows being a Cornish emigrant family.
Sick of the betrayals the United States government has perpetrated on the Native Americans, Colonel William Ludlow retires to a remote part of Montana. Along with One Stab, a Cree friend, he builds a ranch and live with his family. Accompanying them are hired hand and outlaw Decker, Pet (Decker's Cree wife) and Isabel Two (his daughter). Ludlow has three sons: Alfred, the eldest, is responsible and cautious; Tristan, the Colonel's favourite son, is wild and well versed in American Indian traditions; Samuel, the youngest, is educated but naive and constantly watched over by his brothers.
