Le Trou

Le Trou ("the hole") is a 1960 film directed by Jacques Becker. It was called The Night Watch when first released in the United States, but is released under its French title today.

The film tells the true story of five prison inmates in La Santé Prison in France in 1947. The five dig, tunnel and saw their way in an attempt to break out of the prison in 1947. Director Becker, who died months after the film completed shooting, used mostly non-actors for starring roles in the film including one man who was actually involved in the 1947 escape.
