Next Movie--Broadway


"Ya see, Mr. Chan, it was like this. That guy Houdini, he was put in some
handcuffs...just like I'm doing to your son here. And then within
seconds he's free!! Most amazing thing I'd ever seen on the stage.
And..uh, now where did I put the key?


Most of you know this is my favorite Oland film!

Mine too Chris! I never get tired of watching this film. Huber's best Chan role (in my opinion). Leon Ames and Doug Fowley play great baddies. Marc Lawrence even makes an appearance.

The other reason I like it is the quintessential portrayal of Big Apple life in the 30's. Maybe not the most realistic, but it makes you want to travel back in time to be there.

By the way, for all the great things about this movie, it has to be one of the most misleading titles of the whole series. Very little of the movie has anything to do with Broadway at all.
