Paul, I watched the film and I find that you are absolutely correct! I don't understand why the TCM schedule didn't list Oland on their limited cast listing for Shanghai Express. He plays a very big part, and his acting is much better (in my humble opinion) than in "Daughter of the Dragon." TXS. Lou.
