Bennett and her husband would both retire from films in the early 1930s but she’d continue taking sporadic roles until the early 1940 when after making just over 50 films she hung it up for good. Despite only making “Robin Hood’ (1922) together, she would remain close with co-star Douglas Fairbanks Sr. until his 1939 passing.
