Blind Corner (U.S. title: Man in the Dark) is a 1964 British second feature[2] thriller film directed by Lance Comfort and starring William Sylvester, Barbara Shelley and Alexander Davion.

Paul agrees, but after a recording session with Ronnie Carroll he is told by his business partner Mike Williams that Anne and Rickie have been seen about town together in circumstances which leave no doubt that they are more than friends.

They entrap Anne into revealing her true motives: the whole scheme had been concocted with Rickie as a convenient fall guy, there to take the rap if suspicions were aroused about Paul's death.

The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "An unassuming thriller in which credibility is let down by the unconvincing characterisation of Rickie, and the somewhat storybook picture of Paul's professional life and blissful lack of awareness of his efficient secretary's obvious adoration.

But it is fascinating as a perfectly preserved fossil of a long dead form, and Sylvester's character – a blind composer continually distracted from his serious music by the need to write pop songs in order to pay for his wife's extravagant lifestyle – is firmly anchored in the 60s.

The transfer of his affections from Barbara Shelley, his selfish, malevolent wife, to Elizabeth Shepherd, his stoically loving secretary, charts a satisfying path from indulgence and obsession to creativity and respect.
