About The Unholy Three (1925)
The Unholy Three is a 1925 American silent crime melodrama film involving a trio of circus conmen, directed by Tod Browning and starring Lon Chaney. The supporting cast features Mae Busch, Matt Moore, Victor McLaglen, and Harry Earles.
Three performers leave a sideshow after Tweedledee, a midget performer, assaults a young heckler and sparks a melee. The three join together in an "unholy" plan to become wealthy. Professor Echo, the ventriloquist, assumes the role of Mrs. O'Grady, a kindly old grandmother, who runs a pet shop, while Tweedledee plays her grandchild. Hercules, the strongman, works in the shop along with the unsuspecting Hector McDonald. Echo's girlfriend, pickpocket Rosie O'Grady, pretends to be his granddaughter.
