Review of Wait Until Dark (1967) by Michael P — 28 Mar 2009
Some thrillers dig into your skin, and make you care for their lead characters.
This is one of those thrillers.
It creates and holds tension so well, with fantastic performances.
Audrey Hepburn plays Susy Hendrix, a blind woman living with her husband in a small apartment. Her husband was given a doll by a mysterious woman at the airport. The doll, unbeknowst to him, is filled with herion.
When a drug dealer named Roat (Alan Arkin) comes looking for it with two hired men (Richard Crenna and Jack Weston), tensions rise.
The errieiest parts are when one of the three men are doing something they shouldn't right in front of Susy, and she never knows.
Wait Until Dark is a splendid thriller, and I suggest it to anyone who wants to be scared and also use their brain.
