Watching Murder Over New York with Charlie Chan.

Charlie talk just like Sydney Wang talk. Favorite son just like Sydney's adopted Japanese son. Charlie make analogies like "tenaciuos British agent and meticulous Chinese detective like Royal Flush in poker hand. Unbeatable".

Peter Sellers did it pretty well. Talked like him. Had son. Used similes.

Sellers was brilliant in this.

Comedic genius. Whenever I pull out my copy of this movie I have to remind myself it was Peter Sellers in the role. He just disappeared into a character.
