#1 ....Miss Pickford was a lovely lady, and a superb businesswoman. Depression and Demon Rum got her in the end, however. Retreated into a bottle and her mansion in the mid-30s and pretty much stayed there until she passed in '79.

#2 As Mary Pickford goes, so goes the World.

Nearly 1 Million More People in England are now addicted to alcohol as a result of Covid Lockdowns.

Global Industrial Alcohol Market to Reach $147.1 Billion by 2024

So, as Mary Pickford became a recluse (locked-down), concerned for her waning appeal by the public; the economic health of her business empire (supply and demand disruptions) she anesthetized* herself with Demon Rum. *(Today Opioids, Fentanyl, etc.)
Many are now following Mary Pickford's lead - Careful, You not be one of them.
