The Net of Divine Retribution (1947)

I found another one!

http://www.mtime.com/movie/47614/

And on this page...

http://www.hoodong.com/wiki/徐莘园

The actor Xiyuan Xu is credited in this film in the role of 'Charlie Chan' in both the 1948 film 'Charlie Chan and Combatting the Enemy Overlord' and the 1947 film 'The Net of Divine Retribution'

一代枭雄 (1948) .... 陈查礼

天网恢恢 (1947) .... 陈查礼

The actor Xiyuan Xu is credited in both films in the role of 'Charlie Chan'.

I am convinced that there were at least five Shanghai-based Charlie Chan films made and there are at least two others that might be Chan films. Xiyuan Xu is in all the films.

Re: The Net of Divine Retribution (1947)

Oh, correction please...

一代枭雄 (1948) .... 陈查礼

This film is translated approximately as 'Hero of Our Time' (1948). The role listed here translates as 'Charlie Chan'.

This apparently brings the count to between 6 and 8 Chan films made in China. I can't believe this. It's just nutty. How could all of these have gone unnoticed...???

Does this microscopic picture show us Charlie Chan?

It is a still from 'The Net of Divine Retribution' (1947)
