Yea, Faith Domergue twice in one month! I like Cult of the Cobra, and that the plot is based on westerners getting what they deserve for disrespecting foreign culture.

Yea, Faith Domergue twice in one month! I like Cult of the Cobra, and that the plot is based on westerners getting what they deserve for disrespecting foreign culture. Coincidentally, I thought of posting the following here today, jamesjazzguitar... I caught "The Lady of the Fifth Moon" episode on HAVE GUN - WILL TRAVEL last night. On one hand director and star Richard Boone gave respect to Chinese culture, but the episode was undermined by yellow face ethos: William Schallert played a Eurasian-looking character while Bethel Leslie, another Caucasian, took two roles away from an Asian actress or actresses. I was thinking of possible actors during the early 1960s time who could well have more realistically yielded these spots: Keye Luke, Philip Ahn, James Hong, Nancy Kwan, et al.
