I ask this just out of curiosity, since some of the suggestions of films
whose narratives detour seem to me to be films in which the narrative is, in
fact, a detour.

Since many of the suggestions show a certain common understanding that
detours are directions taken away from explicit ellipses, I just wondered
how explicit a narrative has to be in order for its parenthesis to be
considered a detour.

When, for example, is a detour not narrative?

(I quite like Nicky's "human pegs" mind)
