...scriptwriter and director, who often trample the story's tender reeds with Mediterranean melodrama. Compensation for these shortcomings: 1) a long, lingering look at Pier Angeli before Hollywood discovered her-in Tomorrow, her first Italian picture, made in 1949, she plays the tragic teen-ager with a gentle glow and an innocent coquetry that makes her far more alluring than most of Hollywood's veteran vamps; 2) a look at brilliant Director Vittorio (Miracle in Milan) De Sica as an actor.

...last three years, a group of newspapermen have been meeting in Manhattan, discussing what the United Nations should recommend about newspapers in general. The idea of such a conclave--called the Freedom of Information Convention--belongs to an American newspaper society, which in the glow of the inter-Allied good-fellowship that followed the Atlantic Charter began agitating for a code to make the world's journals as free as those in America. The glow has dulled now, and the Convention has contributed much to its expiration...
