With only sixty-five hours to spare, before the brother mounts the gallows, Char-" lie sets out to prove the young man's innocence. The trail leads him to a manor house not far from London. There the threads of the story meet in an intricate maze of plot and coun- terplot, leading finally to an en- thralling climax. There is a fox hunt, packed with suspense in which Charlie pursues his human quarry across the countryside. There is a desperate dash to save the life of still another victim of the' mysterious murderer. Warner Oland, as before, is the canny Charlie Chan of the new film. Of all the fine performances registered by this screen actor, ! Charlie Chan has been most not- lable. The present characterization even exceeds those of the past in subtlety and dramatic effect.
