Charlie Chan: Joy in heart more desirable than bullet.
Charlie Chan (Warner Oland) visits Paris to investigate a bond forging scheme and meets up with a couple of murders in the process.
This is a pretty good entry in the mystery series. I was interested to see Erik Rhodes in the role of a bank employee and usually drunk. I had never seen him in anything but the two Astaire/Rogers movies in which plays comic Italians. He’s OK but his material doesn’t let him be very funny.
