Henri 'Papillon' Charriere's account of life in the infamous and
reputedly inescapable Devil's Island prison, brought to the screen
with Steve McQueen as its eponymous hero. Refusing to surrender to
the cruelty of the prison regime, Papillon protects the
bespectacled Louis Dega (Dustin Hoffman) from an abusive guard,
makes a bid for freedom, and ends up spending a long spell in
solitary confinement. When he is finally released back into the
main prison, he again refuses to surrender and, along with Dega,
makes another escape attempt.
