		In "Piccadilly," Dupont does some great things with lighting, and his varied combinations of shadows and light are often stunning.
		But her most substantial role was in "Piccadilly." It makes great use of her expressive face, grace, and photogenic qualities.
		The plot of "Piccadilly" is basically skeletal and somewhat formulaic, and the characterizations are strictly one-dimensional.

	DVD Savant Review: Piccadilly
		Piccadilly is a fascinating silent filmed just before the British film industry made the changeover to sound.
		Piccadilly not only exalts her as a sex symbol, it uses the stereotyped "inscrutability" of Asians as a function of her appeal.
		Piccadilly's sexy cover illustration doesn't reflect anything seen in the movie, but Shosho's "Chinese" dance is a stunner that equals Dupont's earlier performance set-pieces in Variety.

	Piccadilly Jim (2004) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		The Piccadilly Jim that finally emerged from Fellowes's screenplay was an interpretation deeply at odds with Wodehouse humor, the result of the selection of a director, John McKay, who was mismatched with the story.
		The Piccadilly Jim of 2004 is a true wastrel, a womanizer, brawler, and drunkard who is deeply unsympathetic.
		The 1936 film of Piccadilly Jim had Jim pen cartoon parodies of the Pett family in retribution for their condescending treatment of his father, before Jim knew Ann was their relative.

		Although the loss was Piccadilly's first since going public in 1979, it followed several consecutive quarters of uneven sales and declining profits.
		In that quarter, Piccadilly lost $283,000 on sales of $76.2 million, versus after-tax income of $2.6 million on sales of $76 million for the same period in fiscal 1991.
		Piccadilly, which operates 143 cafeterias and 10 Ralph & Kacoo seafood dinner houses in 14 states in the South, is one of the central players in a segment whose once strong value image is being battered by the rapid growth of such self-service all-you-can-eat competitors as Ryan's family Steak Houses and Old Country Buffet.

		Piccadilly was the brilliant apex to Dupont’s trilogy of backstage life (Varieté and Moulin Rouge), showcasing the director’s signature mix of great acting, amazing imagery and astonishing camera movements.
		Heavily influenced by German Expressionism, PICCADILLY is based on an Arnold Bennett story and is told as a kind of murder mystery in reverse (you know something bad's going to happen, but you're not sure to who and by whom until the end when one of the characters is murdered by another).
		Now, with Piccadilly readily available on disc, all film lovers are afforded the opportunity to fall in love with the luminous spirit that was Anna May Wong.

	village voice > film > 'Anna May Wong'; Piccadilly by J. Hoberman
		The MOMA retro mainly samples Wong's subsequent Hollywood talkies: Daughter of the Dragon (1931); Shanghai Express (1932), showing with the 1936 Hearst newsreel Anna May Wong Visits Shanghai; and her two films directed by Robert Florey, Dangerous to Know (1938) and Daughter of Shanghai (1938).
		Dupont's mobile camera maneuvers around a splendid set to track a tawdry showbiz sexual triangle: The pomaded proprietor of the deco nightspot Club Piccadilly dumps his star jazz baby to pursue Wong's lithe slum goddess, first seen entertaining her fellow scullions with a dreamily sensuous tabletop dance.
		Piccadilly is both evidence of silent cinema at its rudely aborted peak and Wong's frustrated potential to have been among its greatest stars.

		The junction in the eastbound tunnel is still visible at the end of the platform; there was also a separate westbound DLD platform, but this seems to have disappeared during a recent reconstruction of the station.
		Therefore the Piccadilly was extended over two of these (to Hounslow and to Uxbridge), giving a second outlet for the traffic.
		The original layout between the tube mouths (at Barons Court) and Hammersmith had the Piccadilly tracks on the north side of the District; both this section and the tracks westwards to Acton Town were now rearranged, with the Piccadilly Line running between the District tracks.
