The latest film
restoration project from the Film Chest was announced this past week and it is
none other than director Edgar G. Ulmer’s perfectly-pitched 1945 film noir masterpiece, Detour. It will be available for collectors to savor
on July 22.
Although a “poverty row”
production, Detour magically rose above its humble roots over the years to
be revered as one of the great film noirs … with Ann Savage gaining cult status
as the predatory Vera. Tom Neal, well,
his star burned brightly during this period until the famous altercation with
Franchot Tone over their mutual love affairs with actress Barbara Payton.
