[@annamarielewis7078]

My fondest memory of my paternal grandmother is watching Charlie Chan movies with her on Saturday afternoons.💓

[@Billys-Joint]

That's really great. Glad you liked the show

[@CissyBrazil]

So many of Charlie Chan’s quips get me to laugh out loud. Too funny! And, Mantan Moreland is right in his element. 😂

[@marshagiebas7048]

I loved these when I was a little girl. It's great to be able to watch them again!

[@justamannn8674]

Chan is always COOL!

[@Mary-KateHiatt]

LOVE THE CHANNEL! CHARLIE CHAN IS MY ALLTIME FAVORITE OLD MOVIES! KEEP IT UP!

[@Billys-Joint]

Thanks! Will do!

[@carolynsilar9606]

Never had a television when I was young. So happy to watch these wonderful Charlie Han movies. Thank you and God less you.

[@Billys-Joint]

My pleasure Carolyn. Glad u like them.

[@melissasaint3283]

Billy, the Black Camel was such a treat. Thanks for verifying that that IS Dwight Frye!

[@CissyBrazil]

I recognize Dwight Frye immediately. And here he’s in the same film with Bêla Lugosi like he was in Dracula.

[@michaelgillespie1206]

​​@@CissyBrazilthe same year too, I thought I recognized Dwight Frye. And a young Robert Young that I almost didn't recognize.

[@CissyBrazil]

"You are zebra!" "Zebra? What you mean?" "Sport model, jackass!"

[@DonnaBrowwn]

I am shamelessly spoiling myself today by watching The Joint all day long.

[@Billys-Joint]

glad to have you here Donna!

[@kimmccabe1422]

This is my fav Chan. So well done. Wonder if there are more Chans out there? Boy do i remember all these😊❤

[@Billys-Joint]

I have about 22 or so Chan movies on the channel. I am running a bit low as some r copyright protected.

[@uslines]

I think this is my favorite CC film. Also, my favorite CC book. Film follows book pretty closely.

[@Billys-Joint]

cool, glad u liked it!

[@willieluncheonette5843]

The Chan films were almost never directed by anything more than average directors. But with The Shanghai Cobra the series found a first class director--Phil Karlson. He made his mark with a series of top notch noirs in the 50's Scandal Sheet, 99 River Street, Tight Spot, Hell's Island, Five Against the House, The Phenix City Story and and The Brothers Rico. Shanghai Cobra (1945) was shot while Karlson was still finding his style but just look at the first 6 minutes. PURE NOIR!!

[@Billys-Joint]

Thanks for the info Willie. I have seen some of those films. Thx for watching too!

[@CissyBrazil]

Interesting info…thanks!

[@JohnShields-xx1yk]

C. C. Night, I'm all in.

[@Billys-Joint]

groovy Thx!

[@mousiebrown943]

I think the movie ads are really fun and add a lot to the Double Feature. Just wish I had a big dill pickle with the movie, like when I was a kid. Pickle for a nickel and 10cents for popcorn at the movie house when I was young..... Entry for daytime movies was $.25. More for ones at night.

[@Billys-Joint]

Yes. Now you need a municipal bond to pay for popcorn. hehe

[@feralbluee]

It is so good to see Bela Lagosi is a part not a you know what :) I also saw him in film where he played a lost man whose wife had disappeared years before. I always thought it was so unfair that Karloff (who is a good actor, too!), was held in such high regard and Bela wasn’t. But then, Karloff came from rich family and was English. Anyway, that’s what it feels like to me. Here’s to Bela Lagosi :) 🥂🌷🌱

[@CissyBrazil]

That crazy helper of Charlie Chan is hysterical! The Black Camel film

[@Billys-Joint]

The flicks are fun and funny as much as they are detective films. I looooove the ending wrap-up-the-case scenes.

[@CissyBrazil]

@ 😂😂

[@CissyBrazil]

I am so impressed with the writer of the Charlie Chan mysteries. Too sad he was gone so long ago. There is probably no footage of any interviews.

[@Billys-Joint]

hmmm dunno Cissy

[@elisaevangelisti666]

[@soniarosado2848]

[@CissyBrazil]

Charlie Chan: my lie detector is wife 😂😂

[@Billys-Joint]

hahaha

[@Chef-Really5365]

Is that the actor who played Remfeild in Dracula?

[@Billys-Joint]

There were a few Renfields but this is the one that is famous, I do not see him in credits for Chucky Chan... Dwight Iliff Frye (born Fry; February 22, 1899 - November 7, 1943) was an American character actor of stage and screen. He is best known for his portrayals of neurotic, murderous villains in several classic Universal horror films, such as Renfield in Dracula (1931) and Fritz in Frankenstein (1931)

Please understand CHINA was US Ally in WWII against Japan.
