    These are the best Charlie Chan movies with good production values and starring Warner Oland, the best of all the Charlie Chans.

      @@vsedai All I remember of Burke's Law is my sister and me driving ourselves goofy imitating and giggling over that woman's insinuating voice in the intro. It wasn't a good idea for entertainment in the back seat of the car unless we wanted Mommy (or Daddy) to pull over. We also loved this thing where we'd play dress-up, stuff our blouses with curves made out of socks, use a long pencil for a cigarette, and say, "Come up and see me sometime, big boy." LOL. I don't think we even knew where that one came from. Times will never be that much side-splitting fun again. I heard not long back that my Number Three Granddaughter and her little friends, all about age 8, were seen by grownups hollering, "Shot!" and tossing back small glasses of Kool-Aid. Innocence! Where did it go?

    Maybe my favorite Warner Oland Charlie Chan reply here at the 1:45-1:55 mark, when the captain tells Charlie that the reappearance after a mysterious seven year absence of Alan Colby, to claim the fortune from his father's death, much to the chagrin ("TOUGH on the Colby heirs") of the other heirs, and Charlie replies it'll be "TOUGH on Alan Colby if dead". The deliveries of these type of retorts by both Oland Warner's Charlie Chan and Sidney Toler's, are priceless.

    "tough on the Colby heirs if he's alive" (so said the boat captain here, to Charlie Chan). Then, in vintage Charlie Chan style, Chan replies; "tough on Alan Colby if dead". It's great lines like this throughout all the Charlie Chan movies, that make them worth re-watching.

    It's really sad that in some circles these movies are remembered as an example of early 20th century racism. Because talk all you want about perceived stereotypes, and Chan being played by people who are not ethnically Chinese, and what that implies about casting at the time; these are still movies that came out in the mid 30's and early 40's that show a Chinese hero and his family in a favorable light, respected and well treated, not the comic relief, and often appearing less ridiculous than the white characters. These movies were, dare I say it, progressive for their time. It's almost as though political correctness doesn't understand context or nuance.

      A B movie was a less expensively made movie but - like the Charlie Chan movies could be very good.
      A C movie is a step down from a B movie as the name implies -
      even less spent on the production and the actors etc - and a weaker script.

    Sunday noon on WGN in the '80s: Sunday Mystery Theatre. Charlie Chan, Sherlock Holmes, Bulldog Drummond, occasionally The Falcon, Mr. Wong, Mr. Moto or some other obscure movie detective. A very pleasant way to spend an hour waiting for the Cubs game announced by Harry Carey and Jack Brickhouse (or switch over to the Bears game.)

      legion1a Many of the older movies were released different years than they were produced. There are several made just prior to Pearl Harbor that were held until after the war because emotional, ethical or the star was enlisted and attentions were directed to that effort. It was a time when the nation cared about these issues. They are wonderful movies and were crafted for distraction and entertainment. Fellow fan!

    You have to love the writing for Chan's vintage axioms. The boat captain says "a man walks out on a fortune seven years ago, then all of a sudden he appears from nowhere to claim it, I'd say that's a little tough on the Colby heirs, if he's alive"- and Charlie Chan replies that it's a tough on Alan Colby, if dead"-too good.

    How perfectly horrible. The villain sat up smiling, everybody clapped, and the butler went on being hilarious for nearly breaking his neck, going without sleep, being sneered at and shot to the delight of the audience until he was forgotten two-thirds or so through the show. And the villain triumphed! I could cheerfully kick this film in the can! (Just this one, cuz I love Charlie Chan.)

    Interesting background trivia that most people today would not understand. Alan Colby was taken prisoner during The Rif War (1921 to 1926). France entered the war in 1924 after a massive attack by the Riffians that destroyed 40 of 66 French outposts in Morocco resulting in the French deployment of the famed French Foreign Legion.
