Reynolds and Withers



i thought they had quite a chemistry in this movie. the script did not delve much into Roberta's obvious crush on Captain Street.

if this were re-made, im sure they would have thrown those two in bed together.

Both were pretty good in this movie. I am not a fan of this one, though - I thought it was boring and too long-winded.

But Roberta had funny moments - when she stowed away in the backseat of the police car....when she sort of tricked the Captain into donning her with her coat.

I love Boris Karloff but frankly he wasn't very good in this role.

Early in "Mr. Wong in Chinatown" There's a line where Bobbie states she and Street had dinner the night before on a date. There's obviously and attraction there: Marjorie Reynolds is gorgeous!

It is true that it's more obvious that the two are dating in 'Mr Wong In Chinatown.' There are clues in 'The Final Hour' too. The only time that Street is tender to Bobbie is when she faints towards the of this movie. At other times in all three of the Mr Wong movies together, Street treats Bobbie as a nuisance. He had even had her handcuffed her to a chair in 'Chinatown.'
