Bit-part player in her later movie "Sally" (1929), Harry Holden, had given Marilyn Miller her first stage assignment

"Inside Facts - Legit", Variety magazine gossip, pictured in the film "dance of life" (Hal Skelly, 1929), has the following information:

"Marilyn Millers first film scene in "Sally" has her as a waitress. First customer is a bit player, Harry Holden, who as a stage producer gave the star her first stage assignment when she was six years old. Screenshot of article. https://i.imgur.com/TAGUSihg.png. Newspapers in movies quite often hold fabricated, repeated information. This is real information. IMDB has Harry holden in "Sally": 'Cafe Customer (uncredited)'. May not have been the "first scene" though. The first part of the article Re: 'burlesque touch artist' is relevant to the character 'Skid Johnson', played by Hal Skelly in that concurrent film "Dance of Life" (1929).
