A blind composer, who earns good money, gives his wife a generous allowance. She, in turn, showers her lover with money for the little luxuries in life. Soon the wife arranges for her lover, a professional painter, to paint her picture. In between a variety of horizontal posing sessions she tells him about her weary disgust with married life...
"Blind corner" is a good, twisty thriller about a blind man surrounded by betrayal. The movie doesn't waste much time on frills and digressions, although there are a few musical numbers to sit through. (The composer, who dreams of creating a serious masterwork, earns his money writing popular songs.) It also doesn't overstay its welcome, being concise and to-the-point.
I try not to overindulge in nitpicking, but still, there was one detail about "Blind corner" that irked me no end. If you were blind, if you liked the occasional whisky and if you lived in a building with a balcony, wouldn't you arrange for the parapet surrounding the balcony to be both sturdy and high ? And if that were somehow impossible, wouldn't you move with lightning speed to another, safer dwelling ? It is one thing to be capable and confident, it is another to go through life like a lemming on laughing gas.
