Lovers Florence Carala and Julien Tavernier make a plan to kill Florence’s husband Simon, a wealthy French industrialist who is also Julien’s boss. Staying late at the office one Saturday, Julien, an ex-Foreign Legion parachutist and veteran of the Indochinese and Algerian wars, uses a rope to climb up the outside of the building to Simon’s office and shoots Simon with Simon’s own gun, afterward arranging the room to make it look like a suicide. He then makes his way back to his office and leaves the building with a secretary and security guard, who are to be his alibis. When he gets into his convertible, he glances up and sees he left the rope hanging from the building. Leaving the engine running, he rushes back into the building and boards the elevator. As it ascends, the security guard switches off the power and locks up for the weekend, trapping Julien between floors.Elevator to the Gallows 1958 Full Movie Download
Moments later, Julien’s car is stolen by Louis, a young small-time crook, and his girlfriend Véronique, a flower shop assistant. Waiting for Julien at a nearby café, Florence sees the car go by, with Véronique leaning out the window. Assuming Julien could not go through with their plan and has picked up Véronique, she wanders the Paris streets despondently all night, searching for him in local bars and clubs.
Louis puts on Julien’s coat and pockets Julien’s revolver, which Véronique finds in the glovebox. The pair drives back and forth on the highway for hours, until some Germans in a sporty Mercedes challenge Louis to a race. He follows the Germans to a motel just off the highway, and the German driver, the jovial Horst Bencker, invites Louis and Véronique to have a drink with him and his wife Frieda. Both couples check in and, while they chat, Frieda takes a few pictures of Louis and her husband with Julien’s camera. She finishes the roll, so Véronique drops the film off at the motel’s photo lab.
