Charlie Chan in Paris
PARIS...MYSTERY...MURDER! CHAN FINDS THE ANSWER!
Directed by Hamilton MacFadden, Lewis Seiler
Produced by Fox Film Corporation
A classic 1930s detective mystery set in Paris, where Charlie Chan unravels a forgery scheme amid murder and false accusations, culminating in a climactic sewer chase.
Charlie's visit to Paris, ostensibly a vacation, is really a mission to investigate a bond-forgery racket. But his agent, apache dancer Nardi is killed before she can tell him much. The case, complicated by a false murder accusation for banker's daughter Yvette, climaxes with a strange journey through the Paris sewers.
