Charlie Chan at Monte Carlo (1937)


Twentieth Century-Fox
Directed by Eugene Forde
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb
(DVD, Fox)

Warner Oland's final appearance as Charlie Chan is set in the French resort town of Monte Carlo. Chan assists a the Chief of Police when they discover a body in a car outside of town. Charlie mostly plays second fiddle to the French police, though he often proves them wrong. Number One Son Keye Luke provides comic relief by butchering the French language and chasing meaningless clues.
