Charlie Chan: Dark Alibi
It’s just common sense: when you want to cast Sherlock Holmes, you scope out the actors in London’s West End. And when you want to cast a famous Chinese detective, you get a guy from Missouri.
Sidney Toler stars as Charlie Chan in a performance that Mickey Rooney called “way too subtle.” Dispensing Eastern wisdom that’s as authentically ancient as a Calgon ad, he’s called into action when a bank robbery leaves a man dead and thus unable to take advantage of low, low rates on financing. In order to bring a falsely accused man to justice, Charlie must infiltrate the jail where he’s being held, which results in what we can confidently say is the most exciting scene ever set inside a prison hay baling shed.
Charlie Chan once got nice with Ad-Rock, but now it’s Mike, Kevin, and Bill’s turn. Join them for Charlie Chan: Dark Alibi!
