Three's a Crowd

Three's a Crowd (1927)

Harry, The Odd Fellow, is a tenement worker who lives alone in a shack alongside a warehouse and longs for the companionship of a wife and children like other men. One day he spies a pretty girl in his telescope and sends her by carrier pigeon a note that, alas, is received by the wrong party. The Girl marries and, poverty-striken, leaves her husband during a snowstorm. Harry takes her in, and minutes later her child is born. He works like a slave for the mother and child, pretending they are his own. Meanwhile, the husband finds her and comes to the shack on Christmas Eve as Harry is preparing to play Santa Claus. Not realizing the unhappiness she is causing him, The Girl thanks him profusely and leaves with her husband. Overcome, Harry sits overnight on the doorstep and the next morning is found frozen stiff except for his eyes--with amusing results.

Curiosidades

Three's a Crowd is a 1927 American silent comedy film directed by Harry Langdon and written by James Langdon and Robert Eddy. The film stars Harry Langdon, Gladys McConnell, Cornelius Keefe, and Arthur Thalasso. The film was released on August 28, 1927, by First National Pictures.

Production

Originally Frank Capra, who had directed Langdon's previous feature Long Pants, was set to direct the film, but was fired by Langdon. Capra's animosity toward Langdon resulted in him sending film exhibitors a letter criticizing Langdon as "a temperamental egoist". Following Capra's firing, Langdon took over as the director. This would be his first directorial effort, and the first film of his three picture deal with First National Pictures.
