Featured review
The Real Charlie Chan was a fascinating take on his real-life inspiration, Chang Apana
Just discovered on Google Video this extra originally from one of the Fox Charlie Chan DVD's. It's about the actual Honolulu police detective Chang Apana who author Earl Derr Biggers based his fictional Hawaii sleuth on. Actually, this Apana person was very tough and investigated illegal gambling as opposed to the murders usually associated with Chan. Among the people interviewed were a couple of younger relatives named Karl and Sheri Kagimoto as well as a few current members of the state capital city police. This was a fascinating document for anyone interested in the inspiration of this popular detective from the early 20th century. So on that note, I recommend The Real Charlie Chan.
