DETOUR
"DETOUR" (1945)
MY THOUGHTS:
This Noir / Thriller was a new movie to me. I enjoyed it very much. I found the storyline to be somewhat intriguing and the acting was quite good. I felt it was worth the watch.
"In New York, piano player Al Roberts laments when his singer girlfriend, Sue Harvey, leaves for Hollywood, Calif. When Al gets some money, he decides to hitchhike to California to join Sue. In Arizona, Al accepts a ride with Charles Haskell, but during a storm in a freak accident, Haskell is killed. Frightened, Al assumes Haskell's identity and car, but soon comes upon the mysterious Vera, who seems to know all about his true identity."
