Anecdotes
Sidney Toler had been diagnosed with terminal cancer just before filming on this movie started, but insisted on continuing his commitment to the Charlie Chan film series. The studio accommodated him by granting him prolonged breaks for rest, and staging the scenes so as not to tax his strength. By having the Chan character wounded at the beginning of this film, the studio could conserve Toler's energy and spare him from extended movement. Although Toler remains the central actor, much of the action is diverted to Jimmy Chan (Victor Sen Yung) and Birmingham Brown (Mantan Moreland).

Gaffes
The scene of the bus supposedly pulling into the San Francisco terminal was very obviously filmed in Hollywood.

Different and better

I really liked this Chan, it kept my interest all the way through. I found the plot complex, not hard to follow. I think that is why I really enjoyed it, there is a lot going on with lots of characters coming and going. Some people on here claimed the plot didn't make sense but let us be fair, a mystery isn't a mystery if you know what is going to happen from one scene to the next. I really have no complaints, this is one I want to watch again very soon. One thing I appreciate about the Chan movies is the fact that the producers tried to give you something a bit different from one film to the next. Sure, they recycle themselves after a while but some Chans really stand out...like this one. I just relax and watch all the events as they occur and let Charlie explain it all at the end! I guess some folks just like predictable films and turn up their noses at anything that doesn't follow the herd.
