Thank you. Your purchase and enjoyment of Volume One will help, in a small, yet menaingful way, to let the powers that be at Fox that their Charlie Chan material remains popular, and will continue to be profitable. The bottom line, as we know, is always at the top of the list!
Regarding Lucy Liu's proposed "Charlie Chan" film, I took a look at the most recent information (from about a year ago), and her comments were not too encouraging, I felt. It seems that she holds very little appreciation, let alone understanding, for her honorable "grandfather." Of course, we can hope for the best. In my humble opinion, she could put together a truly meaningfil piece of Chan lore that will be of some lasting value, or, she can follow the path to a few quick bucks and a soon-to-be forgotten (and happily so) film. Again, hope, however faint, still sprouts a blossom or two...
