So So 1950s B&W - Blind Spot review by AW
Can't find any info on lead actor Robert Mackenzie or Anne Sharp.
RM starts out ok with an American accent, playing a war blinded Capt. in a nice US Army base hospital but his accent changes to mashed Scottish for the rest of the film.
That just blew it for me.
He was reasonable in his role but when he mysteriously regains his sight it all went downhill and became a bit humdrum. Michael Caine appears for only seconds at the end with a passable plummy accent. Ernest Clark, Arthur Lowe (garage mechanic) and John Le Mesurier are further familiar faces.
Basic 50s B&W mystery. 68 mins long.
