'Blind' is a 2016 American drama film directed by Michael Mailer, written by John Buffalo Mailer, and starring Alec Baldwin, Demi Moore, Viva Bianca, Dylan McDermott, and James McCaffrey. The film was released on July 14, 2017, by Vertical Entertainment.
Plot
Suzanne Dutchman (Demi Moore) seems to be a happily married wife. Her husband Mark (Dylan McDermott) is a businessman who continuously travels and is very well known. One day at a dinner party, Mark speaks to a client, Howard (James McCaffrey), about a deal whilst Suzanne speaks with her close friend Deanna (Viva Bianca). As Suzanne and Mark are on their way home it is revealed that the couple aren't so happy after all.
Howard is caught by an undercover female agent for using and dealing cocaine, and reveals many issues involving Mark. Mark is then arrested, and Suzanne faces charges for supporting him in his actions. The judge feels sympathy for Suzanne, mentions that she understands that Suzanne was unaware of her husband's actions, and sentences her to 100 hours of community service only.
Suzanne fulfills her court ordered community service by reading for visually-impaired/blind man Bill Oakland (Alec Baldwin), an author and English lecturer. Suzanne develops feelings for Bill and, when she finds out about her husband's affair, leans towards Bill even more.
