This gag with Birmingham and Ben was also in "Dark Alibi." Also, I'm not sure whether Ben is Birmingham's Brother, or Cousin. I think he's referred to as both, between the two movies.

[@rocistone6570]

I've always enjoyed Sidney Toler as Charlie Chan. Watching him in the later pictures tugs at my heartstrings because Toler would become so ill in his last few films. With his passing and the advent of Roland Winters, the character could no longer make up for the skimpy budgets at Monogram. I find myself unable to watch much of the last few "Chan" pictures done by Winters, altho you can see him trying in every scene he is in to lift up the character and the story.

[@101Volts]

Only so many of these are Public Domain, the others are still under copyright. You have these, according to Wikipedia: (Listed from earliest to latest, from one actor to another:) Warner Oland: Charlie Chan's Secret - 1936 Sidney Toler: The Scarlet Clue (the one on this page) - 1945 Dangerous Money - 1946 Dark Alibi - 1946 The Trap - 1947 Roland Winters: The Chinese Ring - 1947 The Golden Eye - 1948 Frankly, I think Warner Oland was still the best Chan. Sidney Toler was still good, but not as much. Roland Winters kinda... Didn't get enough practice in, was at the tail end of the series, plus the company was cheap, and they (Monogram) dried up not long after: in 1953.

[@ericmatteson8888]

I love Mantan Morland! despite some of the overtly racist portrayals and jokes, he paved the way for many black comedians. In these films despite his comic delivery, he was generally the voice of reason in situations no rational person would want to be in.

[@feralbluee]

i freaking love Mantan. he has got the best timing, expressions, and acting ability. it seems to me that he’s the one who brightens up these movies and makes everything go smoothly. he’s always at the center of every scene he’s in. of course, you need the consummate straight man - Charlie (as played wonderfully by either actor). and his other comedy partner - #? son :) he and his partner, i forget his name, had one of the best routines ever. “you mean. -yeah, the one that. -oh, that. -yeah, hey you got the. -it’s 7,30. -isn’t that the time we. -it sure was. -boy, that was. -mmm mm, yes. -well. -you gotta. -yes, i have. -ok see you. -same time. -mmm mm - well. -so long. -bye.” “what? -yeah, we always have the best conversations! we know each other’s. -minds? -how did you know that? man, can’t keep anything secret any more!!!!!!” 😂🤣😝👨🏿‍⚕️👨🏾‍⚕️🌷🌱

Her mom always told her, "Cigarettes will be the death of you."

[@101Volts]

If her Mom told her that, her Mom was *far* ahead of the curve. Cigarettes were still thought of as "harmless" in this movie, despite how the previous actor for Charlie Chan (Warner Oland) died of -lung cancer- (edit: pneumonia worsened by smoking.) Though, Oland's last movie (in 1938, the year he died) _did_ have one character saying that her husband smoked, and it killed him at the age of 46. *Edit: I was previously mistaken of how Warner Oland died.
