guish of the man intensity with
each step thereafter to the films
climax.
The faith Of Greene and Rouse
in the eloquence Of their cameras
is fully sustained in THE Thief"
A peremptorially ringing tele-
phone that the thief knows is q
signal. the mysteriousness Of a
casual passerby in a Georgetown
street, the approach of an inno-
cent reader to a Library of Con-
gress stack in which a film has
been secreted - none of these
needs a word to sharpen its ex-
element.
Nor do any other segments of
the long pursuit which ends in a
perhaps too long drawn out climax
on the tower platform of the En-
pire State Building. AS pursuits
go, this chase of Milland is un-
excelled since moviegoers were
shattered by the one in odd
Man Out" AS in that picture, the
hero is man hunted by the au-
thorities and haunted by a con-
science that has been savagely
outraged. It is something to see.

Three separate applications for

the requests, reaf11rming an earlier

The resourceful young produc-
erS of THE Thief" deny that the
films speechlessness is purely a
stunt. This is debatable. Even as
a stunt. however. a talkless film
that comes off this we'll is notably
worthy of attention.
The burden of carrying the high
drama of The Thief" falls upon
Ray Milland in the title role. He
makes it one of his most impress

except human speech. he creates
a gripping portrait of a Washing

act OF selling his country'S top
secret and his own soul.
The movie camera is rarely put
to such arreSting use.
THE THE" is not a silent movie.
1t has carefully made sound
track of BACKGROUND music inter-
spersed with the normal noises Of
llfe--in Washington and George
town for the most part.
Beyond these sounds, Greene
and Rouse refused to go in the
script of The Thief" 1t is easy
to understand why. They are tell
ing a spy story and they inten-
sify its excitement with the sug-
gestion that in this field of hu-
man activity. the less said the
better. Hence. their characters
say absolutely nothing even
though clarity might have found
a few words useful.
The loss of realism in the alb
sence of speech in THE Thief"
is negligible on the whole. Mil
lands performance takes care of
this. He is an actor under the
searching eye of a magnifying
camera as he goes about his
work. The area of this work is
the Atomic Energy Commission

by night.
In the latter, he receives the
phone calls directing him in his
contacts with the enemy agents
with whom he deals. In the peace
full Georgetown street outside his
door and in the Library of Con-

orders scraWled on the inside of
cigarette packages or to deliver
microfilms of formulae he has
photographed in the carefully
guarded Acc Laboratories.
The suspense of the early pas
sages of The Thief" lies in the
spy's daring defiance of the safe
guards thrown around the atom
secrets. This is a shattering game
of cat and mouse played on the
center court, the Acc building
itself.
The question is how long Mil
land can keep winning it against
the labyrinthine precautions to
frustrate his kind. 1t is answered
midway in the film when the re-
morseless manhunt begins when
top secret documents are found on
an enemy agent killed by chance
in an automobile accident.
From this point on, the drama |
of The Thief" is doubled, for
not only is Milland in tight from
