		Oland had rushed Shaggedy from his dressing room to the dog hospital, having found that a medicated flea bath was indicated.

		It’s a Hollywood legend that the Warner brothers, plucky independents, stuck their necks out a mile when they ‘invented’ sound in 1927 when they produced ‘the first talkie’ with THE JAZZ SINGER.
		The Warners believed that their critical audience was an urban one, composed of millions of lower middle class, ethnic working people and their families.
		The sound that accompanied segments of the film was recorded on disc by the New York Philharmonic, and the film’s action scenes were as fluid and suspenseful as anything the movies had seen.

	Movie Info for Charlie Chan at the Opera on MSN Movies
		Detective William Demarest figures the case is open and shut, but oriental sleuth Charlie Chan (Oland) is not thoroughly convinced of Karloff's guilt--nor is he certain that Boris is genuinely insane.
		To give away the ending would be churlish, but we can note that Charlotte Henry plays Karloff's daughter, who has been raised to believe that her father was dead.
		Considered by some Charlie Chan fans to be the best of the Warner Oland efforts, Charlie Chan at the Opera is distinguished by excellent production values, and by an original opera composed by Oscar Levant--who allegedly agreed to this assignment provided he could include the word "Silencio!" in his lyrics.

		Warner Oland is Dr. Boris Karlov(!), who has just gotten word that his daughter has taken her own life because she was, ahem, "ruined" by a man of some prominence.
		Perils and death traps abound, and Oland is a very nasty, very memorable villain, one of those maniacal movie madmen that takes gleeful delight in how rotten they are.
		This is the kind of movie in which every night is pitch-dark and stormy, every flash of lightning reveals a face at the window, and nobody is to be trusted, even the cops.

	Passing from Light into Dark.
		Werner Oland, a Swedish immigrant, played Cantor Rabinowitz in "The Jazz Singer." He had just finished co-starring as the villianous Chris Buckwell in "Old San Francisco." Buckwell is a Chinese "vice lord," the boss of a criminal network who passes himself off as white when he is outside Chinatown.
		But, in 1935, Oland made a triumphal tour of China where he was surrounded by thousands of fans of Charlie Chan.
		So too with Warner Oland in "Old San Francisco" and "The Mysterious Dr. Fu Manchu." In both films he had a beautiful white woman in his clutches.

		My favorite character, however, is the comic relief Aunt played by Clara Blandick, whose sensibilities are so offended by the mad doctor's actions that she vows to give him a piece of her mind, and she actually does this (in a hilarious scene) when she is captured.
		One interesting item about this movie is the character name of Warner Oland's mad doctor; he is Boris Karlov.
		Director George B. Seitz and Warner Oland had worked together once before, in a 1917 movie called THE LIGHTNING RAIDER, a movie which also featured an actor by the name of Boris Karloff.

		The series was at its apex during Warner Oland's stint as the supersleuth, and Sidney Toler did an admirable job after Oland's death in 1937.
		Production values and scripts declined after the series made the move from 20th Century-Fox to Monogram in 1944, though Toler made the move, too, portraying the portly sleuth until his death in 1947.

		As Chris stated, Chan fans are usually divided regarding their favorite actor to play the detective during the nearly two decade run of the series.
		Warner Oland and Sidney Toler usually run neck-and-neck with Roland Winters placing at third.
		The plus with Toler's Chan, I feel, is that his detective fit in very well with the times and society that was, by the late 1930s, in the process of a very rapid transformation (much as our society changed during the '60s).

		Not only does it appear to be the earliest surviving of the Warner Oland Charlie Chan movies, but it may be the first time a horror star was cast as a red herring in a mystery.
		This one is a lot of fun, with Oland quite hilarious at times.
		He's assisted by a rather dim helper named Kashimo rather than his number one son, but we do have a great sequence with Chan at home with his family (which is quite large), and makes a great comment about escaping the frustrations of family life to the calm and peace of solving murders.

		This was the first of a series of Fu Manchu movies with Warner (Charlie Chan) Oland playing the evil genius.
		I've seen several Fu Manchu movies over the years, but this is the first one I've seen that gives us some of the back story of Fu Manchu's life, and explains why he wishes revenge.
		As you might expect from the year of release, this is an early talkie, and consequently fairly creaky with bad sound, but it's well written, and fairly engaging throughout.
