I'm looking for an old POW movie, it is in black and white so probably 40s or 50s era. It is not Albert RN or Stalag 17''.
It is a movie about a wheeler dealer in, I think, the American Military who is moved around various POW camps including being sent to a logging camp where the other POWs think he is a traitor and try to murder him with a meat hook or logging hook. He eventually escapes near the end of the war, after he makes contact with a female member of the resistance who is an optician or optometrist. He also manages to trick the German guards at the logging camp into burning down their own camp at one point.
Can anyone help with this? Again, it is not Stalag 17
