Wait Until Dark, 1967 June 20, 2012

Wednesday, June 20 – 7:30 PM
WAIT UNTIL DARK, 1967, Warner Bros., 108 min. The original tagline perfectly captures the spine-tingling chill of Terence Young’s notorious thriller: “The blinds moving up and down… The squeaking shoes… And then the knife whistling past her ear.” Audrey Hepburn stars as Susy Hendrix, a blind woman terrorized by a duo of thugs and psychopathic mastermind Roat (Alan Arkin) as they search for a doll stuffed with heroin believed to be in her apartment. Hepburn received an Oscar nomination for Best Actress for her frighteningly believable performance. This screening is part of our yearlong 90th anniversary celebration of the Egyptian Theatre. WAIT UNTIL DARK had a run at the Egyptian in 1967. [35mm]
