Description

There are over fifty Chan films and an additional three Spanish language Chan films.

This guide reviews the forty-four extant Chan films.

Entries, alphabetically arranged, include a unique annotated cast list, a comparative rating system, production information, analysis and plot synopsis, a performance critique, and a collection of Chan sayings, which vary from film to film.

An introduction discusses the history and literary origins of the Chan films and the formulaic devices common to the films. Film scholars and fans of the Charlie Chan films will appreciate the extensive information each review provides.

Each film is given a star rating, and several appendices provide additional information such as the lost films of Charlie Chan, actors who played Chan, and Chan on television.
