“Piccadilly Jim.”
One of the most uproarious laugh riots of the year shows at the Plaza Theatre finally to-night with the release' of the Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer production, “Piccadilly Jim,” starring Robert Montgomery. Of all the hilarious comedies written by the brilliant British humorist P. G. Wodehouse, “Piccadilly Jim” has been proclaimed his funniest. Directed by Robert Z. Leonard, who made “The Great Ziegfeld,” the new picture gives Montgomery and Miss Evans a stellar supporting cast that includes Frank Morgan and Billie Burke. “Piccadilly Jim” is the story of a young American caricaturist in London who plunges into romantic difficulties by unknowingly burlesquing in a comic strip the family of the girl with whom he is in love. The settings of London and New York and the transatlantic steamer backgrounds are described as among the most beautiful ever designed by Cedric Gibbons.
