I was a pain in the ass kid growing up. Sending me to the movies to watch a double feature gave my mother a little peace and quiet for a couple of hours.
I've loved Charley Chan since I was kid, 60 yrs ago. I even named my dog Charley and when I can't get his attention I call him Charley Chan, thanks Cliff for putting them on.. I don't know how many times I've watched these since 2013
I watch these movies as a kid growing up in the 1940s. Charlie Chan. Boston Blackie, The Whistler, the falcon and many more. That was my entertainment before television came out to the public in 1946.
@@johnnyray88 yes .. and two of my other favorites were Inner Sanctum and Our Gal Sunday. Wonderful old shows is what they all were. Let's not forget The Great Gildersleeve!
_"You should get married and raise large family. Once you have large family ... all other trouble mean nothing."_ This must be one of the best Charlie Chan quotes ever.
I first started watching Sidney Tolers CC. I thought he's the best. Then I watched Warner Olands CC. I never thought the time would come to see a replacement character as guuuud as the original..and it happened a long time ago!😚 They are both the best Charlie Chan. 🌠 Idk if anyone else has noticed-Sidney Toler looks a lot like John Malkovich--without his make-up! Sweet..
Warner Oland was the first actor to portray Charlie Chan - as we know him - in sixteen films produced at Fox studios (later Twentieth Century-Fox) from 1931 until his death in 1938. Beginning in 1938, Sidney Toler carried on the role, taking the Oriental detective through eleven more adventures at Twentieth Century-Fox and an additional eleven films at Monogram Pictures until his passing in 1947.
We have always loved detective movies from early years theyre no. 1 for us itx never tiring to watch them over n over again a great cast too 👍 👏 😊 👌 thanks somuch for sharing them 😀 😊 ☺️ 🙂 👍 😄
Love Charlie Chan! Especially Orland and Toler as CC, Keye Luke as #1 son, & Manatan Moreland, the successful comedian whose risqué acts were released on vinyl, an excerpt of which ended up sampled for a Beastie Bots song & Moreland cut a single himself, "That Ain't My Finger" lol. So many sons of same age. Thanks for posting!
If you have a smart tv, you can cast it from your phone or connect it by wire from your computer. Also Roku has a You Tube app built in it. We can watch all these great old films on our large screen tv without broadcast tv and commercials.
There has always been concern over a non Chinese actor playing Charlie Chan. But the actors who played that role were excellent actors and I thought they showed great respect for the character.
I agree fully about Mantan being restrained. Too many Chan movies were ruined by his loud and unnecessary presence. Political Correctness was the official state religion even back then and did a lot of damage.
@@leelarson107 Phooey. You stand alone. I'm glad you're not in charge of what I watch and what I do, more so because I have a cold dark sense that you would like to rule IN PLACE of that imagined (and you failed to say "IMO;" wouldn't dare suggest "IMHO") 1944 post-Civil War holdouts being marched into those reeducation camps sneakily set up all over the civilized world to look like CONSCIENCE I suppose, what a dirty world it has been since they freed the slaves (?), I mean what exactly is it you object to about the nudging away from treating black-skinned formerly unpaid often whipped bloody, their families torn apart and sold off more cruelly than if they'd been a horse who was fond of a pony so they let the pair stay together on the same farm, it was just too sweet to see that and not want to let them stay buddies, who cares if it queered a good sale on that pony. What in all that and worse, both before abolition and for decades after, was so much "brainwashing" and no good stinking re-education of genteel light people back in the '40s, and I guess you know this from a wide range of reading, studying, formal education, unless you were an ADULT in 1944, going to movies where you could judge intelligently that "political" correctness was a state religion, and it was only a start. Must have ached like a rock upside your head when the wrong side lost WW2. Did you learn THAT from study and comparison later or were you THERE too? I don't like today's black culture, of it on my TV and impinging on my world, I hate the constant sight and noise and IMO stupidity imposed on us not "like" a state religion, and even I, stewing in my thoroughly thought-out outrage, with a history in MY LIFE of bullying and terrorizing from black men slowing down in cars such that I could have disappeared and nobody would have known who/how did it, and young black school girls making me walk home from my high school the long way because here they came in thick crowds from the junior high, bigger and older than I, held back because, IMO now, the political correctness was imposed on hateful, unfeeling, inexplicable whites who ruled America like a state religion, decades too late. So we had wall-to-wall black people in our municipal swimming pools, shrieking crowds of black girls in movie theaters, bullies shoving whites out of line everywhere we went in mixed crowds like say The New Orleans World's Fair. It should have been LAW, just like freeing the slaves, to treat them exactly the same as we treated ourselves, with degrees of racial "separation" that were lawfully scheduled to shrink continually until what we had wrought was no more, and the price we felt poor us were paying was paid, like Jesus would, Buddha if you'd rather, if you say Ayn Rand I'll fall over laughing and quit talking to you, knowing (I know it anyway) that you can't be reached any more than the Nazis in Germany could. We waited until there was nothing left of both "sides" but seething rage, stupidity, noise, hatred, and then when FORCED, not imposed like a state goddamn religion, but forced. It was way too late to do what was obviously decent and deserved and right instead of continuing the Civil War in every room in America, sneering on both sides, murder plans. Just who was the AUTHORITY that, at the end of the Civil War which the South lost (I am a Southerner) that we would make the freed negros sit at the back of the bus, drink different water, live in ghetto neighborhoods, go to negro schools, or even having fine facilities of their own by right, like ours, if separation was so desirable. "I agree fully about Mantan being restrained. Too many Chan movies were ruined by his loud and unnecessary presence." You jerk. Who do you think you influenced with that, you in your greenhouse raising orchids and slapping faces to keep society correct? YAWN. I am not proofreading this. I shouldn't even have to be here, still saying it.
@@Carly8Corday phooey. You stand alone. There always gotta b 1 in the crowd that goes if on a tangent. Congrats!! For what...not sure. But at least you got all that off your chest, right?!
None of Charlie Chan son's will ever become great detectives🕵 all of them have one track minds. They make Barney Fife looks like Columbo 😂 Great movie🎥 thanks for the upload👍👍
I beg to differ! Take a look at how Tommy Chan takes a beating for his Pop in this one! Charlie Chan's sons may not exactly be "mature" detectives, but they often come through with something helpful in solving a case! Also, please remember that the sons were added, as was Birmingham Brown, to add some comic relief, especially evident the Monogram Pictures Chan series!
Thank you,Mr.Van Ness for sharing this Very interesting,excitingly Good Charlie Chan movie! I very much enjoyed trying to figure out who killed Mr.Manning.I did think Manning was corrupt,but was not able to figure out,who did him in.
Thank you for the great note. I'm a big fan of the old Charlie Chan Mysteries. In total I have around 16 or more. They are all in an archive file. I'm thinking of unzipping all of them and uploading a few. I also have a bunch of Bogart, and Sherlock Holmes movies. Too many to remember in that archive! I've recently purchased an external 500GB hard drive so now I have tons of space (I hope!) to unzip all my old movies. Lots of the old Sci-fi movies Too. So you can check back in a week or two and see what's new in old flicks 😃
Based on what you said below Mr Van Ness, I am going to subscribe. Thank you for uploading these great movies. I really can't tolerate anything these days except all things Avengers. 🤗
I love watching Charlie chan movies especially when Birmingham brown are in them and Charlie chans no2 son, but I really enjoy the mystery movies as keeps one thinking and trying to work things out befor they let cat out of bag. The only one I don't like to watch much is Colombo as you know who Dunnet befor it gets into full swing, sherlock Holmes with basil faith one is my absolute fav but I do like some of the ones with Jeremy Brett. But for now I am watching good old Charlie chan , sherlock Tom and rosemaryxthyne at weekend. For those watching Charlie enjoy, and have a cuppa and some bikkies while you watching.
I always love watching Charlie Chan movies always loved him both of them LOL but I never like the way they have Birmingham seeming to be stupid I never liked that it was funny in the beginning and then it just became ridiculous how he just they betrayed him to be just stupid I never liked that and I was wrong but I still enjoy watching Charlie Chan love his movies still watching it now today in 2021 May 17th 2021 still watching Charlie Chan God bless his soul their souls peace of love everyone
to go to the cinema to pay warfare stuffs interesting... how a smart dude make another dude smart? the importance to be smart can save the day (how fast chan diverted thugs by telling ), so why chan can work on his sons'smartness? is it fault of the smart one who can't teach or you need cooperation by the dude you teach at? interesting
so far cabby has no cash for fare not up to $5 and the book store purchase was only $2 and the cop gives the poorer driver a ticket for parking. the cabby knew there would be trouble but did not assume it be economic.
In 1944, that $5 cab fare would, in 2020, be nearly $75, and the $2 book would cost about $30. The numbers would even be higher in the year 2023 from which I am posting!
@@rgglick i re watched 'arsenic and old lace' the other night. In that flick the cabbie keeps his meter running as the dark comedy rolls along. i think the cabbie even goes as far as to state, 'u'll own two cabs' by the time the meter is paid/ Funny thing money is there was no currency in the soviet union and cash in a hand (in a movie) seemed to go further than just as much as for the regular G I Joe. i want to say there was no real consumerism. not yet what i refer to is the need for disposable income comes with a post world war world of 'want, want, and need'. and first time there would be a country that would float the bill for all, leftovers. so perhaps the hand out of cash in flow, is sum THING that does not translate over the generations. Pre 1990s, there just was not enough flow of cash in the form of credit. once there be credit, there be more flow and supply, regardless of demand, the price ends up being what can be paid. // in the movie, 'the towering inferno', Fred Astaire actually low balls a cabbie and pays him to the penny what he owes. All the while of being dropped off at the new Glass Tower, with Fred playing himself as rich. he asked the cabbie it he could make change for a $50. cabbie said no. But if u go to a tourist location, the cabbies will have change. a smart cabbie learns the secrets of how some rich / poor scam them of their Tips. // i was not thinking of inflation when i typed my immediate response to the cabbie's plight. it was just as the pandemic took hold when i typed the words. there was no inflation at that time and the pandemic lasted 3 yrs 3 months from Feb 2020 take care
which actor would retort as well as S Toler to '.. that was two or three murders (last time i seen u Mr chan)' and Charlie Chan responds. 'murder is my business'..// John Cho is too Young and not Overbearing enough. john Cho was born in South Korea and could open a Huge mkt with the CC character.

@@leelarson107 Oh, Lee, this too? FUR? Animals??!? Well, damn the bastards for imposing things on us, the whiners, like juicy yummy women at their peak of beauty (12 through 17) and sold when they got ugly, which they got early in life, men being accustomed to some very young bacon. About animals, how can you feel nothing, knowing about factory farms, about laws APPROVED in this current time despite the state religion of obeying whiners who never shut up no matter what you GIVE them, to crushed live pigs into crates and carts so tightly they can't turn around. Even knowing how much FOOD it takes to raise cattle this way so men can keep eating steaks, loving steak, never considering maybe thinking steak and roast and chops over humanly, like we finally and with creeeeeping slowness (who's the creep? YOU'RE the creep. I'm not a creep. Describing me as a creep is to stand alone.) began to see our own children when we looked at other men's daughters and wanted them to enjoy as "women." I'm not proof reading this either, LOL, if I see a teacher I will hastily do it, but this hammer applied to your hard head in the greenhouse, I should not have to do that. What all else do you figure about people who whine that fur and meat are creeps? Go get the Thesaurus out of the shed, you tossed that baby way too soon. You went Dunning-Kruger at 18, I'll bet.

@@rgglick Le agradezco su gentileza. Si , es una "excelente película". Lamento mucho que varios films sobre Charlie Chan no se haya realizado el doblaje al Español o por lo menos el Subtitulado. No es un problema suyo ni creó que tampoco dependa de Vd. Nuevamente gracias por su envío 👍🍀
with the recent resurgence in Asian movies and movies with Full casts. It may be time for Charlie to make a reappearance. the next question would be whom to play CC and whom else would be cast. I prefer to have a female villain as there are so many Great actresses from the middle Kingdom to choose from. IF it played well enough then perhaps Robert D Jr as sherlock might agree to Team up for a movie Thriller. Thanks for the upload S Toler is my Preferred CC.
Sadly, John, this will never happen in our ultra-PC culture. Even if Hollywood were to actually make a "Charlie Chan" movie today, it would certainly be a TRAVESTY!
Fun, but my least fav of the Orland/Toler CC's. #3 son gets almost as little respect and appreciation as nephew. And where's the chemistry? I dig Keye Luke's bright, earnest, capable ways. This film lacks key elements story-wise as well. At least the brilliant Mantan Moreland is along for the ride, so to speak.
Hollywood should TOTES reboot this with Jackie Chan & Snoop Dog... that shit would be off the hook. Or even better an all female version with Lucy Liu as Lady Chan. Man that would be some original thinking & movie making right there, yaboiiiiii!
I so agree! I DID NOT LIKE him acting like that. It was one of the first 2 or 3 CC I had ever watched (2019), and it made me feel it was the actor I disliked, because the jabs were so sharp and undeserved, made me start wondering about Tiger Dads and remembering things said by young Asians about upbringing methods that almost put my mother to shame. I don't know which movie is actually playing up there, but the one I hated where this Charlie Chan was so needlessly continually hateful to number 3 son was The Green Mask. CC was mean and ugly to EVERYONE in that movie, looking mighty unattractive. I'm going to go ahead and watch this'un next.

CHARLES WALKER: Warner Oland was a Swede. Sidney Toler was a German. Roland Winters was English. What's the problem? Many actors have been portraying different races than their own, as in Jews playing Nazi officers. This is entertainment, not history.
@@leelarson107 You tell him Lee no matter how tough it gets. Dunning-Kruger is watching, studying. I mean ARE. When you ask "What's the problem?" you are insinuating a "problem" into the man's comment. I'm going to go ahead and be sorry I picked on you. You might just be a fellow old person. SMTH.

Funny thing money is there was no currency in the soviet union and cash in a hand (in a movie) seemed to go further than just as much as for the regular G I Joe.
i want to say there was no real consumerism. not yet
what i refer to is the need for disposable income comes with a post world war world of 'want, want, and need'.
and first time there would be a country that would float the bill for all, leftovers.
so perhaps the hand out of cash in flow, is sum THING that does not translate over the generations.
Pre 1990s, there just was not enough flow of cash in the form of credit.
once there be credit, there be more flow and supply, regardless of demand, the price ends up being what can be paid.

@@leelarson107 Oh, Lee, this too? FUR? Animals??!? Well, damn the bastards for imposing things on us, the whiners, like juicy yummy women at their peak of beauty (12 through 17) and sold when they got ugly, which they got early in life, men being accustomed to some very young bacon. About animals, how can you feel nothing, knowing about factory farms, about laws APPROVED in this current time despite the state religion of obeying whiners who never shut up no matter what you GIVE them, to crushed live pigs into crates and carts so tightly they can't turn around. Even knowing how much FOOD it takes to raise cattle this way so men can keep eating steaks, loving steak, never considering maybe thinking steak and roast and chops over humanly, like we finally and with creeeeeping slowness (who's the creep? YOU'RE the creep. I'm not a creep. Describing me as a creep is to stand alone.) began to see our own children when we looked at other men's daughters and wanted them to enjoy as "women." I'm not proof reading this either, LOL, if I see a teacher I will hastily do it, but this hammer applied to your hard head in the greenhouse, I should not have to do that. What all else do you figure about people who whine that fur and meat are creeps? Go get the Thesaurus out of the shed, you tossed that baby way too soon. You went Dunning-Kruger at 18, I'll bet. I'm, like, practically 70, and I still haven't. Man, you are evil. IMPOSSIBLY hateful and wicked. How can you feel this cruel toward every living thing but your own chosen things, as if you're GOD?
chow Y F for the lead in Charlie ... or Ken W from the Godzilla movies.
Buy War Bonds!! 1:04:45// 80 000 000 Americans were asked to buy War Bonds, but in 2017 the GOP passed huge corporate tax cuts,, its now 2021 and its a recession and the tax cuts lead to 2 yrs of massive Buybacks of shares by corporations ($2-3 trillion per yr). all at a time of WAR in two countries plus 40 k troops in Germany and in South Korea each... // Thanks for the Upload S Toler Kills it // God Bless 2021!
Es una pena que películas de Charlie Chan no se haya realizado el Subtitulado en Español.
El público de habla hispana lamenta este inconveniente. 😥
¡Hola Jorje!
¿Alguna vez has visto "Eran Trece"?
th-cam.com/video/rqdHgIs-QEg/w-d-xo.html
Es una película de Charlie Chan que fue producida en español.
@@rgglick Le agradezco su gentileza.
Si , es una "excelente película".
Lamento mucho que varios films sobre Charlie Chan no se haya realizado el doblaje al Español o por lo menos el Subtitulado.
No es un problema suyo ni creó que tampoco dependa de Vd.
Nuevamente gracias por su envío 👍🍀
and the cabby knew it.. a dead body. lolol.
At 3:29 is Toler's mouth moving? I don't think so. Good ole Monogram!
The print quality is rather poor. Yes, you can see his mouth 'almost' moving if you go to Full Screen and look carefully.
with the recent resurgence in Asian movies and movies with Full casts. It may be time for Charlie to make a reappearance. the next question would be whom to play CC and whom else would be cast. I prefer to have a female villain as there are so many Great actresses from the middle Kingdom to choose from. IF it played well enough then perhaps Robert D Jr as sherlock might agree to Team up for a movie Thriller. Thanks for the upload S Toler is my Preferred CC.
Sadly, John, this will never happen in our ultra-PC culture. Even if Hollywood were to actually make a "Charlie Chan" movie today, it would certainly be a TRAVESTY!
I subscribe
I prefer this Chan than the other ( Jackie l mean for the dums).
I'm a dum? Dam!
No edya subtitulado. Que lástima

Fun, but my least fav of the Orland/Toler CC's. #3 son gets almost as little respect and appreciation as nephew. And where's the chemistry? I dig Keye Luke's bright, earnest, capable ways. This film lacks key elements story-wise as well. At least the brilliant Mantan Moreland is along for the ride, so to speak.

Benson fong looks like mannequin with real hair.
Hollywood should TOTES reboot this with Jackie Chan & Snoop Dog... that shit would be off the hook. Or even better an all female version with Lucy Liu as Lady Chan. Man that would be some original thinking & movie making right there, yaboiiiiii!
@Appen Zeller who knows, perhaps it's time for a remake?
Charlie Chan is being unusually hard on his number three son in this film. His comments are unnecessary and quite mean.
I so agree! I DID NOT LIKE him acting like that. It was one of the first 2 or 3 CC I had ever watched (2019), and it made me feel it was the actor I disliked, because the jabs were so sharp and undeserved, made me start wondering about Tiger Dads and remembering things said by young Asians about upbringing methods that almost put my mother to shame.
I don't know which movie is actually playing up there, but the one I hated where this Charlie Chan was so needlessly continually hateful to number 3 son was The Green Mask. CC was mean and ugly to EVERYONE in that movie, looking mighty unattractive. I'm going to go ahead and watch this'un next.
finally an episode with a real authentic Chinese man, not an eye taped Caucasian pretending
All of the Chan sons were played by young men of Chinese descent.
The best Chan was a jewish guy.
@@meowcat9636 We have all lost sight of how to spell IMO. Let alone IMHO. Still, I'll keep an eye out for that, sounds interesting, Meow Cat. My fluffy old champagne tangerine cat says HI.
how can you tell a chinese cat? is it communist?
They're Meowist.
Chans number three son looks like an ALIEN with hair
He is Chinese, Charlie Chan is not(swedish-Werner Oland)
CHARLES WALKER: Warner Oland was a Swede. Sidney Toler was a German. Roland Winters was English. What's the problem? Many actors have been portraying different races than their own, as in Jews playing Nazi officers. This is entertainment, not history.
How do you even know what ''an ALIEN"" looks like??
When was the last time you met one?
@@leelarson107 You tell him Lee no matter how tough it gets. Dunning-Kruger is watching, studying. I mean ARE. When you ask "What's the problem?" you are insinuating a "problem" into the man's comment. I'm going to go ahead and be sorry I picked on you. You might just be a fellow old person. SMTH.
@@MrLyndarenaud HUG!!
Hollywood...happy Asians speaking in clipped phrases and half sentences...and a Jewish actor in the main role. Will these stereotypes ever fade?
