Well, i quite enjoyed Piccadilly, but it falls some way short of a masterpiece. Sweet mentioned it having had ovations when screened recently- but i guess that may have been partly for the musical accompanist? Brecon film soc silent screenings would always get a big cheer for the composer/pianist! Blackmail is considerably better- yes, probably the best British silent-, and one we did screen; excellent score by Paul Shallcross, who took quite a fancy to heroine Anny Ondra. I prefer the silent version to the sound one with the famous bread cutting/ "knife" scene.
