After a flight back home, Sam Hendrix returns with a doll he innocently acquired along the way. As it turns out, the doll is actually stuffed with heroin, and a group of criminals led by the ruthless Roat has followed Hendrix back to his place to retrieve it. When Hendrix leaves for business, the crooks make their move—and find his blind wife, Susy, alone in the apartment. Soon, a life-threatening game begins between Susy and the thugs.

Viewing Notes

Pretty great to see the 35mm at Northbrook Library. Had never seen before and oldest I’ve seen Audrey in a film, I believe. She’s terrific as a blind woman being conned by Richard Crenna and Alan Arkin, who is marvelous. Hilarious to see all the gray hairs jump out of their seats at the obvious scare. Excellent film.
