I loved this movie and am lucky enough to have recorded it on VHS tape when it first came out on TV. I recently made it into a DVD for safe keeping & converted it into an .avi file on one of my external hard drives, again, for safe keeping.I have always enjoyed movies that were based on fact. I remember the real Tom Sullivan singing on TV shows all the time and was fascinated with the movie and the story of his early life.It's a shame that I have to add more lines here in order to make a comment. This rule should be taken out, then more people might make comments.
... View MoreThis has got to be one of my favorite films of all time. It covers the gamut of emotions from hilarious to a tear jerker. There are parts of this movie I will never forget and it was 1984 when I remember first seeing it. If it ever does come out on DVD I will definitely add it to my collection. Marc Singer pulled off playing a blind guy superbly and Shari Belifonte made me fall in love with her character. The whole cast came together to make this movie awesome. I don't remember the name of the character or actor that played his college friend but I do remember laughing at some of the best straight gags I have ever enjoyed in films. If you get a chance to see this movie and then don't... well.. all I could say is shame on you.
... View MoreI am and older person and have seen many movies in my life. I believe this is one of the best of the best. Both funny and sad at the same time. The cast in it's entirety carry this movie to a delightful ending From what I understand a true story of a remarkable living person. I was able to order a DVD of this movie. It cost a pretty penny, But to this old goat, its worth every penny of it. No,I don't sell them.But I can tell you where to get them. I have really said all I can say about this film but due to minimum limits on here I must ramble on for a while so I can get ten lines of text. I am not one of the so called movie critics they get on here can indeed say a lot of nothing about an other wise great film. RespectfullyHoward
... View Morei have a friend thats blind, we watched this movie together way back in 1988 . it was a beautiful movie and she and i both fell in love with iti should have taped it or bought it then, but never thought there would come a time when i couldn't get it. my friend wants it very bad and i would like to get it for her . please tell me how i can get this movie.i thought all of the actors were great , but we especially loved the star ,marc singer, he was very talented and very believable as a blind man.all of the movie was interesting . my favorite scene was in the car and marc singer was driving and the others were drunk, they had cans tied behind the car and the policeman pulled them over, found out he was blind and asked why he was driving and he told them , all the rest of them were drunk. it was hilarious.
