I’d also like to suggest any womenhistory documentariesand of Mary Pickford,the very first “movie star”.There are several out there but one of my favorites would have to be “Mary Pickford American Experience” by PBS Home Video.I realize that there are more important women in history but imagine what film would be like if there had been no Mary Pickford.This was a woman who supported her family from the time she was a child.Then with no education,became the highest paid woman in the US,if not the world.She formed United Artists with then husband Douglas Fairbanks Sr.,Charlie Chaplin….her only competition in films,and DW Griffith.And more than held her own with so-called business men and moguls,all men.Today,people may smirk at her films but she is definitely worthy of mention.
