I love those old movies! I watched them with my father on TV when I was young.
The parallel to Inspector Ishida is great. ;-)

Right now, I'm waitung for a DVD-Ed. in German.^^

Konichiwa!! I have most of Warner Oland's Chan flicks on DVD. They were released in three sets. I always enjoyed his performances as the master detective!

Abayo! :D
