Some 20 minutes and one
murder after Pick Up Alley"
has been running on the Met
ropolitan theater screen, there
is a knock at q door.
This will be Anita Ekberg, /"
the spectator says to himself
A second later, the door
opens and there is Miss Elk
berg looking like a girl who
has come to deliver a hand
some handbag full Of valuable
heroin. In real life, Of course.
1t is highly unlikely that her.
oin-running girls would look
like Miss Ekberg but this is
one of the movies more signal
improvements upon humdrum
existence.
In addition to Miss Ekberg,
Pick Up Alley" has a great
deal of action. all of it photo
graphed in the murky atmo-
sphere which moviemakers
deem the perfect symbolic
weather Of the drug traffic.
The picture also has a lot OF
geography what with cameras
fitting from New York to
London to Libson to Rome and
several other vital centers Of
the international heroine trade.
Beyond Miss Ekberg, the DOM
inant figures Of this expansive
setting are Trevor Howard and
Victor Mature.
They are engaged. respec-
lively. in the business Of being
head of a big dope syndicate
and a New York sleuth. at
which limitations Mr.. Howard
seems considerably the superior
of Mr.. Mature. At any rate. he
goes about his evil business Of
corrupting and killing his fell
low creatures with a cool and
terrifying relish.
Mr.. Mature. on the other
hand. represents law and order
with a rightly that implies a
lack Of spirit on the part Of a
chap who knew from reading
the script that he would end up
with Miss Ekberg.
Apart from Mr.. Towards
and its quality of
travelogue. Pickup Alley is
a routine melodrama which
Columbia Pictures clearly hopes
will appeal to those who will
settle for action in their movies.

A powerful cast attacks its
task with the true zeal in tell
ing The Story Of Esther Co.'S
tello." And although the sea-
soned players turn in credit
able performances. the acting
honors go to q newcomer who
by her sensitive portrayal re-
fuses to let this poignant tale
turn into the maudlin.
The new offering at the
Trans-Lux gives 81 year old
Heather Sears. as Esther. her
first major screen role. She not
only lives up to that tremen-
dous undertaking magnificently
but she also manages to give
a compelling performance with
out the usual benefit Of eye
acting or dialogue.
Miss Sears is faced with these
handicaps because she plays a
blind. deaf-mute girl. She is
rescued from her miserable sur
roundings in Ireland by Joan
Crawford. a wealthy American
who is moved by the girls
plight when she visits her
birthplace.
Some Of the most gripping
scenes in a picture aimed
largely at women's emotions
are the sequences in which Miss
Crawford patiently tutors her
young charge in "hand-talk'
so that she is able to commu-
nicate with the world.
But this tender campaign OF
mercy isn't destined to remain
thus. The girls progress draws
the interest Of the world. so
much so that a fund for her
fellow sufferers is started in
her name. Miss Crawford

friend. Of his know a good
thing when they see it and
the fund drive is turned into
a high-powered racket.
The climax to the whole
rotten business comes when

girl. which leads to rather OBJ
vtous consequences. But these
lips shall remain sealed on this
score because of the pleas
that have been made not TO
reveal what happens to the
girl. H,
