Detour (1945) is a razor-edged noir about the cruelty of chance and the inescapable grip of destiny. Al Roberts, a weary nightclub pianist, sets out to reunite with his love in Los Angeles, thumbing rides across the desolate highways of America. But when a chance encounter takes a dark and unexpected turn, Al finds himself trapped in a nightmare he can’t outrun. Shot on a shoestring budget and powered by a relentless internal monologue, Edgar G. Ulmer’s cult classic is a masterclass in economy, paranoia, and existential dread — where even the smallest decisions cast long shadows.
