An original Australian Daybill poster for the 1948 release of “Escape”

A British-American thriller film directed by Joseph L. Mankiewicz. It follows a Royal Air Force World War II veteran (Rex Harrison) who goes to prison and then escapes and meets a woman who persuades him to surrender.

The screenplay by Philip Dunne was based on the 1926 play Escape by John Galsworthy, which had previously been filmed in 1930.

William Hartnell (Inspector Harris) and Patrick Troughton (Shepherd) achieved widespread fame for playing the Doctor in Doctor Who (1963). Hartnell played the first Doctor from 1963 to 1966 while Troughton played the second Doctor from 1966 to 1969.

"Fugitive with nowhere to go."
