Viewing Notes
Boris Karloff as Fu Manchu in The Mask of Fu Manchu is really something to behold. Quite the treat and trick from 1932, as apparently there wasn’t a single worthy Asian actor at the time. Comical that all of Fu Manchu’s clan are made of an assortment of ethnicities and yet they live secluded somewhere in China. Myrna Loy is a vixen of a Manchu daughter. All in all I’m very fond of this film.
