Ascensore per il patibolo (1958)
Julien uccide, d'accordo con l'amante, il marito di lei. Ma quando sta uscendo dalla casa del delitto resta chiuso nell'ascensore. In una memorabile scena tenta di liberarsi dalla trappola. Solo all'alba può fuggire. Tutto sembra riuscito perfettamente, ma mentre Julien era chiuso nell'ascensore, alcuni teppisti avevano rubato la sua auto e poi ucciso due turisti tedeschi. Arrestato per questo delitto che non ha commesso, Julien non sa come difendersi perché dovrebbe rivelare l'altro delitto. Ma la sua amante riesce a scagionarlo.
