#2 What about #1 Son?

You're thinking of Charlie Chan.

I have a book with four of John P. Marquand's Mr. Moto novels (it's the Avenel collection mentioned near the bottom). These were written in the build-up to WWII. I was surprised at the sympathetic portrayal of a Japanese agent, even during the Japanese takeover of Mongolia (covered in Mr. Moto Is So Sorry). But, of course, that was before the war...

Except for the last novel, written in '57. That took a "let bygones be bygones" approach.

I liked the Peter Lorre movies, though.

#3 Well, the Green Hornet's Japanese sidekick suddenly turned Phillipino on Dec. 8, 1941, so what the hell...
