Sorry, this movie sucks

It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

I can't agree more with the other person commenting on this great movie. This is one of several great movies from the early 80's that I have on VHS but that are falling apart and need to find a new audience on DVD.I just don't see what people wait for when they make those decisions about what to digitize and what to leave people waiting for.This movie is all heart and is held together by the very underrated Marc Singer (yes, that Marc Singer of Beastmaster fame. I swear you make one bad choice and you are branded for life). Telling the true story of blind singer/entertainer Tom Sullivan, Singer brings him to stunning life with a memorable performance that far few were ever able to see.Let's do what we can to get this great story on DVD for a new generation to enjoy.

I 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

i 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.

I am also one who watched this movie multiple times when it ran on cable in the 80's...It is one of my favorites. I have never understood why it was skewered by critics. In one of my Video Guides it was actually given a turkey (meaning that they thought it was so bad that it didn't even deserve a rating using the star system!). I have the book that the movie was based on. But I actually enjoy the movie more. Marc Singer is wonderful as Tom Sullivan...All of the actors were good in this film, the story is uplifting and I still enjoy watching it.
