@moamiua: “These sessions of intensely and deeply solitary thought were part of a lifelong pattern. At age three, she would often refuse to go to bed but rather would hide in a secluded area of the house "to think." She had a distinct memory of not liking the world at age three, and of thinking, "If only I could get back there." She had some sort of vague memory of another, previous existence. She believed that if she thought hard enough and long enough, she would discover where she came from and who she was. When found by her mother and ordered to bed, she would say, "No, Mama, I must stay here and think." In 1957 she remarked, "That's a morbid attitude for a little baby, isn't it?" “Once she was inside the stage, a chair would be brought to her if the stage was empty, and she would sit in the barren space. If the stage was rented and dressed for the next day's shooting, she would sit on one of the furnishings for whatever the film might be. Sometimes she would have a drink; sometimes she would not. Sometimes she sat and cried. Sometimes she sat rapt in deep concentration, silently reflecting on her tumultuous life, her personal relationships, and her stupendous career. Then she would be quietly driven back to Pickfair.” #fyp #oldhollywood #viral #1920s #marypickford
