Miss Brewster's Millions (1926) is a silent film comedy produced by Famous Players-Lasky and distributed by Paramount Pictures. Clarence G. Badger directed and the ever popular Bebe Daniels starred. It was based on a novel by George Barr McCutcheon and a play adaptation of the same name by Winchell Smith and Byron Ongley and had been filmed before in 1921 with Roscoe Arbuckle.
This film is now considered a lost film.
Polly Brewster (Daniels), a penniless Hollywood model and movie extra inherits $1 million. But her new lawyer, Tom Hancock (Baxter), informs her that she has to spend it all within 30 days to inherit $5 million more from her spiteful Uncle Ned Brewster (Sterling) who tries to prevent it from happening.
