None Shall Escape is a 1944 war film. Even though the film was made during the Second World War, the setting is a post-war Nuremberg-style war crimes trial. Alexander Knox plays Wilhelm Grimm, a Nazi officer who is on trial, and the story unfolds through the eyes of several witnesses, including a Catholic priest, Father Warecki (Henry Travers), Grimm's brother Karl (Erik Rolf) and Marja Paeierkowski (Marsha Hunt), a woman whom he was once engaged to.
Alfred Neumann and Joseph Than were nominated for an Academy Award for Best Story.
