LE TROU (THE HOLE)

“Becker’s most perfectly crafted work” (Time Out Film Guide) was also his final film. Le Trou is a gripping suspense classic about four long-time French prisoners—and a newly arrived fifth—who attempt to break out of jail by digging a tunnel into Paris’ sewer system. The cast’s non-professional actors include one who took part in the 1947 incident that inspired the movie. “A masterpiece…and I weigh my words carefully: the greatest French film of all time!” –Jean-Pierre Melville. Cleveland revival premiere. Subtitles. DCP. 132 min.
