The Seventh Cross (1944)
Seven prisoners break out of a German concentration camp in pre-WWII Germany. The head guard has seven crosses built, declaring that each will soon bear one of the escapees.
It’s a weirdly mannered movie with Spencer Tracy as one of the escapees having almost no dialogue for the first half. It’s a bit too stagey to be truly effective, but it picks up steam once Tracy falls in with his old friends, played delightfully by Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy.
