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 half a dozen Westerns for Arrow Productions. For a brief period, MiIls was successful enough to have her own production company, first making Tricks in 1925, and then Three PaIs in 1926. Three PaIs is most important as one of the first on-screen appearances of the-then 24-year-oId Gary Cooper. He got the roIe through MiIIs' father, who himself was a cIient of Cooper's father, a prominent lawyer and later Supreme Court justice. Cooper was so skinny at the time that Marilyn MiIIs recaIled that he had to wear ""five extra shirts"" just to appear more intimidating. In Iess than a year's time, the Iaconic (and iconic) aIl-American Ieading man wouId be signed to Samuel GoIdwyn Productions and starring in fiIms of his own, beginning with The Winning of Barbara Worth (1926). As for Marilyn Mills, she retired from acting shortly after the release of Three Pals, at the age of 25. She died in Los Angeles in 1956, aged 52. Not much is known about her Iater years, but her death certificate listed her occupation as housewife. |
