Ahhh yes that's it, thank you. It was in the back of my mind and I couldn't get it out. Thanks for the help !!
I remember different parts of it so hear me out. Okay, so I remember this scene where the guy is locked in a jail cell. His old man friend who is a painter (they both paint) goes to visit him with paints. They paint a sheet to look exactly like the back of the cell so it looks like they weren't in there. they hid behind the sheet. When the guard came to check on them he couldn't see them and that's how they escaped. I don't know if it is a film or a tv show.
I also remember that there was a girl in his painting class who dressed up as a guy because women weren't allowed to paint.
I really want to find this so any help would be great.
