Сенки текот Кинески (1946)

When Twentieth Century-Fox decided to drop the Charlie Chan series after Замок во пустината (1942), Сидни TOLER купи правата за серијата и го пренесоа Монограм Слики. По правењето 11 филмови со Twentieth Century Fox-, TOLER ќе го направи 11 Чарли Чен филмови со Монограм Слики.

Сенки текот Кинески (1946) was the ninth film that Toler made for Monogram Pictures. Во овој филм, Inspector Charlie Chan is looking for Mary Connover, a missing person. Mary disappeared because of a criminal syndicate that she was working for as an escort. Mary’s grandmother asks Inspector Chan for helping in finding her granddaughter.

Inspector Chan, his number 2 son Jimmy, played as usual by Victor Sen Yung, and Birmingham Brown, played by Mantan Moreland, travel to San Francisco to look for Miss Connover. Jimmy and Birmingham find opportunities to get in to mischief as usual. Complicating Inspector Chan’s investigation is an AWOL Marine and a private detective, who keeps getting in Inspector Chan’s way.

Inspector Chan realizes that discovering the cause of the girl’s fear will lead to solving the case. When a woman’s torso is found in the desert, police fear that it is Mary Connover. Сепак, Charlie Chan discovers it is not her by a clever anatomical observation.

Како и многу од подоцнежните филмови на Чарли Чан, this film is just over an hour. While Sidney Toler was sick with cancer at the time of the film, he was not noticeably struggling like he would in the last two films, Опасни пари (1946) и Стапица (1946).

This film can only be viewed on DVD at this time. Many of the other films are available on YouTube. You can leave a comment or ask a question about this or any post on my Фејсбук страница и Твитер на профилот.
