Blind Corner U.S. Man in the Dark is a 1963 British thriller film, directed by Lance Comfort and starring William Sylvester and Barbara Shelley. It also features popular singer of the time Ronnie Carroll playing himself.

Paul Gregory Sylvester is a blind but very successful pop music composer, married to the beautiful Anne Shelley. Anne is having a secret affair with struggling artist Rickie Seldon Alexander Davion, and persuades Paul to commission Rickie to paint her portrait as a pretext to enable them to spend time together. Paul agrees, but after a recording session with Ronnie Carroll he is told by his business partner Mike Williams Mark Eden that Anne and Rickie have been seen about town together in circumstances which leave no doubt that they are more than friends. Paul knows that Mike has always disliked Anne and suspects he may be troublecausing, but is finally persuaded of the validity of his allegations.Paul makes it clear to Anne that he has found out about the affair and threatens to leave her. Fearing her mealticket is about to disappear, she tells Rickie that they will have to arrange an accident to Paul by getting him drunk and pushing him off the balcony of their home. If Rickie does not agree, she suggests, their affair must end. The plan is attempted, but is botched by Rickie, whose heart is not really in it. After a struggle, he and Paul start to talk and Paul tells him to open his eyes to Annes true nature, suggesting that she may well be doublecrossing him too. Rickie, having no personal antipathy towards Paul, comes to the conclusion that he may be right. The pair end up forming an unlikely alliance, unknown to Anne, to try to entrap her into revealing her true motives. Between them they manage to set her up, and discover that the serious romance is between Anne and Mike, who have managed to hide it for so long by the public pretence of mutual antagonism and loathing. In fact the whole scheme had been concocted with Rickie in mind as a convenient fallguy, there to take the rap if suspicions were aroused about Pauls death. Paul and Rickie then set about meting out appropriate justice on the perfidious pair. ........
