DETOUR

80th Anniversary! Noir Nights "Noir on the Road" series continues on May 12th with the Edgar G. Ulmer thriller DETOUR! From Poverty Row came a movie that, perhaps more than any other, epitomizes the dark fatalism at the heart of film noir. As he hitchhikes his way from New York to Los Angeles, a down-on-his-luck nightclub pianist (Tom Neal) finds himself with a dead body on his hands and nowhere to run—a waking nightmare that goes from bad to worse when he picks up the most vicious femme fatale in cinema history, Ann Savage’s snarling, monstrously conniving drifter Vera. Working with no-name stars on a bargain-basement budget, B auteur Edgar G. Ulmer turned threadbare production values and seedy, low-rent atmosphere into indelible pulp poetry. Newly restored. Advance admission is $10. Day of show admission is $12.The first 50 through the door get a special collectible ticket!DramaPT1H8M2025-05-12
