BAYONA SARRIÁ, PILAR AND AURORA PILI Y MILI

(1947 - )

   the perky blonde Spanish (from Aragón) teenagers Pili and Mili, along with Joselito, Rocío Durcal, Marisol, and others, were part of the "youth movement" in Spanish cinema of the early '60s. The plots of Pili and Mili's films were predicated on the fact that they were identical twins - their first picture was entitled Como dos gotas de agua (Like Two Drops of Water, 1963). After a few pictures in Spain, the sisters came to Mexico in 1966 and co- starred in 4 films (plus one more in Spain) before Mili got married and retired from show business. Pili continued to work on stage and in films in Mexico, at least through 1974.
