But, before we condemn Oland's "Yellowface" incarnation of Charlie Chan, consider this next curious bit of film history: In 1933, Oland made a trip to Shanghai, where he was celebrated by movie audiences there for bringing to life the first positive Chinese character in American film. (After all, compared with the venal Dr. Fu Manchu, whom Oland had also played in the movies, Chan was a hero.) The nascent Chinese film industry then got busy making a series of homegrown Charlie Chan movies. According to contemporary accounts, the Chinese actor who played Chan scrupulously copied the white Oland's Chinese screen mannerisms and speech. Cultural cross-pollination at work at its most endearing -- or dismaying.
As Huang chronicles, though, Apana s famous bullwhip was useless against the anti-Asian racism that prevailed within the police force and society of his time. The actor who played Charlie Chan in that and 40 other films was Warner Oland; like Sidney Toler, the actor who succeeded him in the role, Oland was Caucasian -- Swedish, in fact.
**The premiere date of Little Witch Nobeta is not currently known,** but fans are eagerly awaiting its release. Pupuya Games has been regularly updating fans with progress reports and gameplay trailers, heightening the anticipation even further. The game has garnered a dedicated following due to its charming characters, intriguing storyline, and exciting gameplay.
Black Magic [Charlie Chan in Black Magic] * (1944, Sidney Toler, Mantan Moreland, Frances Chan, Jacqueline de Wit, Claudia Dell) – Classic Movie Review 9054
Director Phil Rosen’s 1944 thriller Black Magic [Charlie Chan in Black Magic] [Meeting at Midnight] is a weak Charlie Chan (Sidney Toler) mystery about the Oriental Detective probing a séance killing.
Toler carries on regardless, and Frances Chan has much to do as Charlie’s daughter Frances, but Mantan Moreland is back as Charlie’s regular driver Birmingham Brown and overacts dreadfully, sabotaging any realism. Interestingly, this is the only film in which a daughter (Frances) plays Charlie’s assistant role usually given to Chan’s sons Lee, Jimmy or Tommy.
Birmingham gets a job as butler to William and Justine Bonner (Dick Gordon, Jacqueline deWit), psychics who conduct occult events at their house. Frances becomes a murder suspect when she attends a séance and Mr Bonner is shot.
Also in the cast are Jacqueline deWit, Claudia Dell, Edward Earle, Ralph Peters, Joseph Crehan as Police Sgt. Matthews, Helen Beverley, Geraldine Wall, Dick Gordon, Harry Depp, Charles Jordan and Frank Jaquet.
Black Magic [Charlie Chan in Black Magic] [Meeting at Midnight] is directed by Phil Rosen, runs 67 minutes, is made by Monogram Pictures, is released by Monogram Pictures (1944) (US) and Associated British Film Distributors (1944) (UK), is written by George Callahan (original screenplay), is shot in black and white by Arthur Martinelli is produced by James S Burkett and Philip N Krasne, and is scored by Alexander Laszlo, with Art Direction by Dave Milton.
The 33rd of 47 Charlie Chan movies, it follows Charlie Chan in The Chinese Cat (1944) and is followed by The Jade Mask (1945).
It was retitled Meeting at Midnight five years after its original release to avoid confusion with Black Magic (1949).
Frances Chan plays a character with her same real name. She played Charlie Chan’s youngest daughter in Charlie Chan’s Greatest Case (1933), possibly the same character. Charlie Chan’s Greatest Case is believed to be a lost film.

Checker`s recording of ''The Twist'' was first released in August, 1960, made the charts then faded away. It was re-released in late 1961 and again went to the top. By 1964, when the British took over the rock scene, Checker and the Twist were gone. Actually, according to the Encyclopedia of Pop, Rock and Soul, Checker didn`t originate the Twist. It was Hank Ballard, who wrote the song.
Little Witch Nobeta is expected to be a delightful addition to the indie gaming scene and is sure to bring joy to players when it finally premieres..
