- Quotes
[first lines]
Child: [narrating] My father was a performer. A magician or a conjurer. He would make things disappear and appear again. He did this is a funny way. His goal was to be good at being not very good. A lot of people, I think, were just confused by him. My mother felt that I was too young to see his act. I don't know if this was true or not. I know that she no longer watched it at all. I don't know how many people actually did.

Featured review
Hard to recommend to a general audience
This film plays out like an acting exercise by two very capable, well-established actors. What holds the simple plot together, along with the series of vignettes showcasing the actors' skills, are two things: the personal ads introducing each segment, and the narration by the characters' deceased daughter.
Blind Date is probably more valuable as a teaching tool in a professional acting class than it would be as a night at the cinema for the general public.
Excerpts from Blind Date will doubtless appear in retrospectives of Clarkson's and Tucci's acting careers, as illustrating examples of their work. That Tucci also directed likely strengthens the focus of the film in terms of his and his co-star's portrayals.
