that he is a decent sort. The
spectators sympathy, perhaps un-
reasonably, is with him every
tortured step of the way.
This affect of "The Steel Trap"
is intensified by the fact that Miss
Wright as Cotten's flight COM
panion is an entirely innocent
participant. She thinks they are
going to Brazil on business trip
for the bank and her reaction to
his mounting terror is perfectly
calculated to increase its impact.
The one big reservation to be
made against "The Steel Trap"
and it may be sheer churlishness
even to think Of it, is that the
ending lacks the ring Of truth.
It could be, of course. that Di-
rector Writer Stone figured any
ending would be received CRATE
fully by an audience exposed to
such a stretch of shattering sus-
pense.
He could be right.

1.-THE AMAZING MONSIEUR FABRE," -
DISTINGUISHED Films picture, produced
by Walter Futter. directed by Henri Dia-

Kirkland At the Little.
Evening star., 1952-11-15
The Cast
Rv Harriet Griffiths

If you are one of those who
think the atrocities should be
written out of the time-honored
nursery tales, you may consider
1.-THE Amazing Monsieur Fabre"
a bit strong for the youngsters,
too.
The new film at the Little isn't
a horror movie, a crime picture
or a war shocker, although it has
a little of the fascination of each.
1t merely is the life story of an
eccentric, kindly French entomol-
ogist and author, M. Henri Fabre.
Actually, M. Febre, non-con-
formist as he Is, doesn't begin to
be as amazing as the insects he
studies. The closeup views Of
the doings of these little creatures
are works of art.
Cowboys and Indians must never
have fought anything like the
grisley death battle of the red and
black ants. The most fatal of
human sirens would have to go
some to equal the lady scorpion.
The construction of a spider web
is an engineers and architects
triumph, and man has learned a
myriad of practical things from
the despised mud wasp.
All these things and more go on
right before your eyes at the Little.
Speaking of nursery stories. M.
Fabre debunks that one about the
industrious ant and the prof1igate
grasshopper. It wouldn't happen,
he says. in defense of the grass
hopper. Ants. he storms, are
murderers.
But all his study of the obviously
thin line between instinct and in
telligence that motivates insect
life leads M. Fabre inevitably to
the conclusion that man alone has
q spirit as well as mind"
The story takes the form Of a
flashback on the life memories of
the 90-year-old Fabre who, having
come to honor and world recogni-
ton, is awaiting a visit from the
President of France.
He moves up from an almost
penniless assistant professor Of
science and mathematics, whose
friend persuades him to put into
writing his revelations of the hunt
ing wasp. He continues his study
of the mysterious insect world de-
spite the disapproval of his
superiorS for daring to argue with
the classic entomologistS.
Finally he is dismissed, in an
amusing scene, for the indescre-
ton of talking about the sex life of
plants in lectures attended by
young ladies.
BY then, however. he already
has achieved national recognition
and received the Legion of, Honor
at the palace of Napoleon III.
The film is enhanced by the
presence of captivating children.
mainly M. Fabre'S, including his
beloved son and pupil who dies at
an early age.

You'll abandon any idea you
may ever have had of stealing a
million dollars after seeing "The
Steel Trap" at Loew's Capitol.
AS Illustrated by Joseph Gotten
and Teresa Wright this is the
most horrendous notion that can
take possession of the mind. On
the surface, it looks good. It may
even look easy as it did in Cot
tens scheme. But after sharing
Cotten's spiritual anguish for ap-
proximately 80 minutes, no ra-
tional human would steal a mil
lion dollars for two million dol
lars.
The idea Is good for one thing,
however. namely a suspenseful
movie. It may be contrived and
it may be merely extraordinarily
clever, but if 1.-The Steel Trap" is
not one of the most unforgettable
pictures of 1852 it will be only be-
cause there are no memorable
ones.
Andrew Stone wrote and di-
rected the production for goth
Century-Fox and he proves him
self man of surprising skill at
fabricating an agony of excite
ment for moviegoers.
Naturally, he gets a great assist
from two such expert performers
as Gotten and Miss Wright. They
are capable of working wonders
with the volcanic emotions of the
weird experience of stealing a mil
lion. Stone could not have
chosen with more discriminating
taste than in his selection Of those
two for ''The Steel Trap"
~ " \
Miss Wright and Gotten are a
pleasant, handsome suburban
couple in '"The Steel Trap" They
have been married for II years,
have a daughter and a pleasant
home.
For all these years, day after
day, Gotten has been going to a
Los Angeles bank where his job
is that of assistant manager.
Daily he participates in the elabo-
rate ritual of closing the banks
huge vault, on certain days on as
mucn as a million in currency.
Gradually the notion of stealing
the whole huge wad takes possess
sion Of his mind. This could be
the perfect crime, planned of
course with extreme artfulness
and care. Gotten figures he could
get the money on a late Friday
afternoon. put it in a suitcase and
fly to Brazil by Monday morning
before the theft was discovered.
Brazil has no extradiction treaty
with this country for crimes as
petty as stealing a million dollars.
X X X X
Writer Stone apparently could
not know more Of the torturous
complexity of stealing a million
if he actually had tried it. 1t
is a shattering labyrinth Of de-
tail through which his cameras
follow Gotten in, incidentally, the
actual settings such as Los An
geles and New Orleans and air.
ports in between.
There is the story to be thought
up to deceive the wife who is to
be taken along. There are the
problems of passports and some
one to take care of the child
until she can be sent for. Inter-
national airline tickets are al
most impossible to come by at
precisely the right minute a GRIM
inal needs them to escape the
police. Then there is the most
mammoth challenge of all, trans
ferring a million dollars from q
vault to worn suitcase.
Cotten's portrait Of a man slip
ping out of an endless chain of
circumstantial nooses is the more
terrifying to look at for the fact

On the other hand, so mercurial
a creature might reverse her field

That childhood, by the way, is
treated as one of the fcrdest

where the name achieved its first

It seems reasonable to say that
no more vivid autobiographer ever
