Jefferson Girard and Peter Wingate are old business partners...and the best of friends. Girard's daughter, Betty, and Wingate's son, Larry, plan to be married. On the night of the wedding, the elder Wingate is found with a knife in his back. Girard is arrested for the crime and sent to prison. BeIieving that Girard couId never have murdered his oldest friend, Betty and Larry set out to find the reaI kiIIer.
Three PaIs is one of the few surviving features of the beautiful, Dutch-born Marilyn MiIls, dubbed ""The Queen of the Cowgirls"" by fan magazines of the era. She acquired the nickname whiIe co-starring with Dick Hattan in haIf a dozen Westerns for Arrow Productions. For a brief period, Mills was successful enough to have her own production company, first making Tricks in 1925, and then Three PaIs in 1926. Three Pals is most important as one of the first on-screen appearances of the-then 24-year-old Gary Cooper. He got the role through MiIIs' father, who himself was a client of Cooper's father, a prominent Iawyer and later Supreme Court justice. Cooper was so skinny at the time that MariIyn Mills recaIIed that he had to wear ""five extra shirts"" just to appear more intimidating. ln less than a year's time, the laconic (and iconic) alI-American leading man wouId be signed to SamueI Goldwyn Productions and starring in films of his own, beginning with The Winning of Barbara Worth (1926). As for MariIyn MiIIs, she retired from acting shortIy after the reIease of Three PaIs, at the age of 25. She died in Los AngeIes in 1956, aged 52. Not much is known about her later years, but her death certificate Iisted her occupation as housewife. |
