"I'll break the phone!" That moment when he knocks down the door and realizes he killed her - the shot with her reflection - and it's all over. #TCMParty #SummerOfDarkness #Detour
Oh, Roberts. She's got you on a choke chain now and all she can see is another payoff. A ride to the easy life she's been denied. No more hitching a ride and getting pawed at by strange men. #SummerOfDarkness #TCMParty #Detour
"You can call me Vera if you like." Why did you pick her up? I mean, why add more witnesses? #SummerOfDarkness #TCMParty #Detour
And thus, our piano player seals his fate by deciding there's no way anyone would actually believe the truth. Instead, he takes a trip down #NoirAlley - and there's hell to pay. #Detour #TCMParty #SummerOfDarkness
I always wondered if he was taking pills for whatever illness he had or if he was rolling uppers and bennies. #Detour #SummerOfDarkness #TCMParty
How many entries in the #SummerOfDarkness canon are driven by characters with a sense of inadequacy compared to the 'good and the great' in society? #Detour #TCMParty
First off - all hail to the film preservation and restoration foundations, like the Film Noir Foundation, for saving movies like #Detour from a slow death. #SummerOfDarkness #TCMparty
If anyone were to press-gang me into running a film class, I would show #Detour as an example of what you can do with a sharp script, a little imagination, good lighting, and a nasty streak #TCMParty #SummerOfDarkness
"We're both a little rotten." Think Walter is a little too precious about his morals. #TCMParty #SummerOfDarkness #DoubleIndemnity
The more I see this film, the more I think that both Walter and Phyllis have their blind spots. Phyllis she thinks that Lola's doing what she does - manipulating men. For Walter, he's more worried about his clockwork plan crashing. #SummerOfDarkness #TCMParty #DoubleIndemnity
