Udgivelsesdato: Jul 31, 1994

Next as part of the tastefully titled “Keep Death on the Road” double-bill, a strong-message film in favour of seat-belts and cordless telephones, Detour. Detour is an early film noir made in 1945. The director was Edgar G. Ulmer, who was born in Austria in 1900. Originally a production designer who worked in both film and theatre for such names as Max Reinardt and Alexander Korda, Ulmer came to the United States in 1931. He began his career as a director in 1934 on a studio picture, The Black Cat.
