- Content Warning: Prosthetics makeup was used to portray an Asian character (Mr. Wong) in this 1940 Detective Movie. A practice known as yellowface used to be the norm in Hollywood that Asian characters were played by white actors, often using makeup to approximate East Asian facial characteristics.

Thank you!
Yellowface makeup? in a film shot in Black & White Hahahaha - busy watching the movie! hopefully they do not play snooker !
Makeup changes appearances, even in black and white. That is the point of the content notice. Nothing funny about it, to some people.
11:47 Bobbi Logan says "Are you Mr Lyons?"
But the man never gave his name so how does she know it?

Stupid warning on your site. 😝
If people are so worried about the woke garbage, dont watch and dont stream. Just watch these classics and dont read the comments, sit back and enjoy.
