...quite an adjustment for anybody. Added to that was the pressure of starting work on her second major film role in Secret Ceremony. So Mia Farrow, 23, had a problem.

After a couple of days, the film makers dispatched an emissary to a private psychiatric clinic in Middlesex. No Mia, and a clinic spokesman refused to say whether she had been there or even what...
