Love at First Sight is a Canadian romantic comedy film, released in 1977. Directed by Rex Bromfield,[1]

Synopsis

Love at First Sight is a slight, comedic romance between a young woman, Shirley (Mary Ann McDonald), and a clumsy blind man (Dan Aykroyd). The pair flees to Niagara Falls to open a restaurant when Shirley’s controlling and unpleasant father (George Murray) objects to their relationship.

Reception

The film was critically panned at the time, and it must be said that many of Dan Aykroyd’s broad blind gags are inane and fall flat, but it has a quirky charm. Aykroyd was still with Saturday Night Live at the time the picture was made and this is his first movie.
