Here is a little background on this movie: 

                                                       In flashbacAnn Savage and Tom Neal in Detourk, New York nightclub pianist Al Roberts hitchhikes to Hollywood to join his girl Sue. On a rainy night, the sleazy gambler he’s riding with mysteriously dies;

afraid of the police, Roberts takes the man’s identity. But thanks to a blackmailing dame, Roberts’ every move plunges him deeper into trouble.

Shot in only 6 days on a shoestring budget, “Detour” was the first “poverty row” movie chosen by the Library of Congress for its National Film Registry, in 1992.
