I'm on a bit of a Marlene Dietrich kick at the moment - you should see my LoveFilm queue! In Shanghai Express Dietrich plays The Notorious Shanghai Lily. Also aboard the train is Anna May Wong, who also appears to be pretty notorious, though she doesn't get it as an honorific. Also several people who are less interesting, and a dog.
Anyway, this is surprisingly fantastic. Dietrich gets the chap (can't imagine why she wants him, as he is deadly dull, but there you go) and Wong bumps off the villain and earns substantial reward.
