Wait Until Dark (1967)

In the murky underbelly of crime, where a fortune in smuggled heroin lies concealed within an innocent-looking doll, the lives of several individuals intersect in a chilling game of deception and danger. Sam Hendrix, a New York photographer, unwittingly becomes the custodian of this doll when a woman named Lisa, attempting to smuggle the illicit cargo into the United States, hands it to him at JFK airport to evade an adversary. But when the doll goes missing, a ruthless criminal named Harry Roat enters the picture, coercing Lisa's ex-convict associates, Mike Talman and Carlino, into a risky scheme to recover the valuable item. However, the task turns out to be more complicated than they anticipate, as Sam's wife, Susy, a recent victim of blindness, resides in their target location - the Hendrix's Greenwich Village apartment. Believing her blindness to be a convenient advantage, the trio hatch a plan to infiltrate her life while Sam is out of town on business. Despite Susy's struggle with her recent disability, her husband's efforts to make her self-sufficient prove crucial in the ensuing events. As Roat, Talman, and Carlino weave an intricate web of lies around Susy, spinning a tale of a murder investigation involving her husband, they underestimate their blind target. Meanwhile, the Hendrix's precocious young neighbor, Gloria, holds more information about the missing doll than she initially reveals. Unbeknownst to the criminals, Susy's blindness might not be a handicap, but an unexpected advantage. 'Wait Until Dark' is a riveting tale of suspense, centering on a blind woman's desperate fight for survival against a trio of merciless criminals. As the tension escalates, the story spirals into a climactic showdown that will keep viewers on the edge of their seats. Will Susy's blindness be her downfall, or will it become her greatest weapon?
