Re: hope is there to find lost chans found lost disney 3 films osward the rabbit 2 others
Wow! I vaguely remember this Oswald character, but then I grew up in the '50s & '60s. Still, that's a rare find for sure! Thanks for sharing, David.
I was looking at "Charlie Chan Carries On" (1931) on IMDb, and noticed that both William Holden & Jason Robards Sr. are listed as actors. However, on their individual IMDb pages, there's no credit to either for this film?
Makes one wonder if the heirs to either actor might have a copy of "Charlie Chan Carries On" tucked within an old truck or something in the basement?

I would love to see even just one of the lost Chan films. Perhaps "Charlie Chan's Courage" would be the most interesting film to see, since Charlie works under-cover, posing as a ranch cook for much of the story. If any lost Chan's surface, a big issue will be the status of the film material. These movies were originally produced on old nitrate film, which had a short shelf life, so an old film can with one of these movies might contain just brittle junk. But that doesn't stop me from hoping that we will all be treated to a Lost Chan Film on TCM someday!!
