Ann Savage, “died in her sleep at a nursing home on Christmas Day from complications following a series of strokes,” according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Savage was most memorable in her femme fatale role Vera in the film noir classic Detour. I still remember how proud I was doing my first film noir retrospective at our film club and was able to get a copy of this movie. Ann Savage was a few notches tougher than your average bad girl, and Detour swirled into deeper realms of ill fate than you usually can take serious. It was a mesmerizing experience
Al Roberts: Oh, sure, Phoenix. You look just like a Phoenix girl.
Vera: Are the girls in Phoenix that bad?
Vera: Stop makin' noises like a husband.
