And here's a closeup of Mary and Buddy with some home movie footage of their honeymoon in Hawaii.
These candid snapshots were taken on July 21, 1937 as the SS Lurline arrived in Hawaii. If you look just to the left of the boat davit at the center of the image (also just off the corner where the images overlap) you can see Mary Pickford and Buddy Rogers.

Of her experience making Ramona Mary Pickford later recalled "I had to take care of the baby...all day long and try to keep her in the shade and worry about her bottle and still play the leading part."
Ramona was one of the first motion pictures to credit the filming location on screen. At left is a photo of Rancho Camulos as it looks today. The window Mary Pickford looked out is in the foreground.
