Prior to the Loved Ones leaving for an engagement in Japan, Berliner saw an ad seeking "buxom girls to put in a movie" and sent her picture to Meyer.
Capri"s first role with Meyer was Common Law Cabin (1967). Capri"s second and last film was Good Morning.. and Goodbye! (1967).
According to Jimmy McDonough, Capri felt betrayed by Meyer after a scene she was told "alluded to nudity" showed more of her body than Capri was comfortable with. She told McDonough, "I was really upset.
I never really talked to anybody on the set again."
Capri left show business after Good Morning.. and Goodbye! to become a school teacher.
She was terrified that someone would find out about her film career, and Meyer protected her anonymity. Capri was in attendance for Meyer"s funeral in 2004.
