A murder takes place in the shop of David Lyons, a deaf man who fails to hear the gunshot being fired. Outside, blind man Wally Karue hears the shot, but cannot see the perpetrator. Both are arrested, but escape to form an unlikely partnership. Being chased by both the law AND the original killers, can the pair work together to outwit them all?

🔍 Search on JustWatch →The film doesn't try to be funnier than it is — and that's its honesty. The humor grows from situations and characters, not from pre-written jokes.
The film does exactly what it was made for: gives you a break. No pretensions to more, but honest and without dead spots.
A solid choice for company. Works alone too, but funnier together.
Director: Arthur Hiller
