I would go see that serial. That would have been amazing.
There was a children's book about Anna May Wong that came out in the US a few years ago--it was great! Such an unusual subject for a picture book, but the art was excellent and it actually talked about the yellowface problem in Hollywood, too.
Sometimes I watch Baby Face and wonder what the movie would have been like if Theresa Harris was cast as Lily Powers, rather than the maid/companion. It's a great movie, but I think that might have made it even better.
