Г-н. Moto Takes a Chance (1938)

Twentieth Century – Fox Film Company released the fourth Mr. Мота фільм, Г-н. Moto Takes a Chance (1938), on June 24, 1938. Lou Breslow and John Patrick set the film in Cambodia allowing Twentieth-Century Fox to use stock footage of the recently discovered ruins of Angkor Wat. The discovery of Angkor Wat captured the attention of the American public. Many film companies took advantage of this fascination by using the ariel footage of the temple in many films of the 1930s.

Г-н. Moto Takes a Chance surprised me with a couple of plot devices including destroying “holy sites” in the film. Besides an Anglo playing a Japanese detectives, several plot devices would prevent this film from being made today. Do you agree? Чаму або чаму няма?
