MYSTERY OF MR. WONG, THE(1939)

The second outing for Karloff as Mr. Wong! This
finds him trying to find out who killed a man
while he was doing a vignette at a party with
his wife and friend!! It looks pretty open and
shut, but things are not always as they seem,
which Mr. Wong knows quite well!! As an asside
here, there's a very valuable artifact that's
been stolen from China that is part of the whole
mystery!! This is a great movie!! A

From a reviewer from IMDb.com:

The Mystery of Mr. Wong (1939)

This is the second film in the Monogram series featuring
Boris Karloff as the soft-spoken Chinese detective, James
Lee Wong. Here he must unravel the reason behind the
unexpected shooting death of a jealous husband at a party,
and the secret surrounding a cursed sapphire that was
smuggled out of China. Though not quite believable here
as an Asian man, Karloff is still interesting to watch in an
understated characterization, and this is possibly the best
of the Mr. Wong offerings from a rather pedestrian collection.
