    Really enjoy his Mr Wong detective movies. IMHO right up there with Charlie Chan. Constantly hunt for those old B/W mystery movies.

      @@stevejauncey3086 That's because they used an old school practice called "acting". And writers had pride in their work.

      Suggest you hunt for them vigorously right here on UA-cam. Hundreds or more B&W films AVAILABLE. (Mystery serials/thrillers including but not limited to being AVAILABLE FREE to view via UA-cam....ALL Sherlock Holmes films - 14, majority of Charlie Chan, & others like the The Lone Wolfe, The Crime Doctor, Boston Blackie, etc)...ALL Commercial Free in USA). ENJOY!
      (My FAV mystery/romantic comedy films are "The Thin Man" films (6). Regretfully, they are ONLY AVAILABLE via You Tube for a FEE.)

    Finally a decent resolution of this movie. Unless I can actually see the actor's lips moving while they speak, I'll pass on the film. Factually I've passed on this film several different times... until tonight. Thanks for the upload. I enjoyed it.

    Dont let the Karloff name fool u. He's actually a refined reveared English gentleman. With those gorgeous large deep set eyes and eyebrows very expressively play a scary man. Hes brilliant. Considering how old this film was made, it was masterfully executed. Impressive and held my interest til the end.

    A rare appearance for Karloff at Warners; on loan from Universal. The end speech was the best they could do and maintain 'neutrality' on the eve of WW II in the US. The politics of that era were toxic, and all the "America First" and other such tropes disappeared the day after Pearl Harbor, while the war raged across Europe and Britain was alone.
