Audrey Hepburn as a blind woman, to discover a crime and regain her normal life. Terence Young's "Wait Until Dark" is a film in which the heroine despite her certain inability has proven that good intentions will prevail over bad. It's a suspense hyped with intelligent queries, w...( read more)

Good god. A remarkable and groundbreaking thriller. What else could you expect from Alan Arkin and Audrey Hepburn though? The beginning is a little confusing but after the ball gets rolling the whole things damn near flawless. Nary a beat is missed. What this film gets more than ...( read more)
