Sunday Movie Time: Detour (1945)

I found this movie over at the Internet Archive. This is what they have to say about today's movie: In a classic poverty-row noir, the protagonist struggles helplessly in the grip of inexorable fate. Currently rated 7.4 at the IMDB.

This was the first poverty-row film chosen by the Library of Congress for its National Film Registry, in 1992. Don't miss it.

The copy you find here is sharper than the two that have already been uploaded. And the mpeg2 file contains nav packets, so you can load it into DVDAuthorGUI (a free program) and quickly create a DVD to watch on your television.



This movie may take a while to load depending upon your internet connection. Please be patient. I think you will be rewarded with a good movie. The movie was released in 1945 and is 1 hour 8 minutes in length.
