A Man Escaped	comment	Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A Man Escaped (Un condamné à mort s'est échappé ou Le vent souffle où il veut) is a 1956 film from France directed by Robert Bresson.The film is set during World War II and the German occupation of France. A man named Fontaine (François Leterrier), a member of the French Resistance, is clapped into Montluc prison in Lyon, and after being beaten by the Gestapo, is left to ponder his fate. One day he notices that while his cell door is made out of stout oak wood, the panels of oak are joined together with lesser quality, softer wood. When he gets an iron spoon with his lunch pail, he pockets it, and discovers that he can saw through the joints. Eventually he's able to remove the wood panels. He then begins to plot his escape.Based on the Real Life memoir of Andre Devigny, who really did escape from Montluc prison in August 1943.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })Note: Since this film has a Spoiler Title, spoilers should be unmarked in this answer.

A Man Escaped / int_5a7b4065	comment	Bedsheet Ladder: Fontaine fashions a couple, one of which he uses to shimmy down a wall. The second one he flings all the way across the gap between the inner and outer walls, and when the hook catches successfully, he and Jost clamber across the gap and thence out of the prison.

A Man Escaped / int_648fe274	type	But for Me, It Was Tuesday
A Man Escaped / int_648fe274	comment	But for Me, It Was Tuesday: A dramatic exmaple. Orsini was betrayed to the Gestapos by his own wife and strangled her near to death over it. The other inmates thought he would go mad, but after enough time he became just as detached and disillusioned as the rest of them. He later admits to Fontaine that although he still has the memories of what happened, to him they're "of another man".
