Blind Date

Corporate workaholic Walter Davis (Bruce Willis) needs a date for an important business dinner. His brother fixes him up with beautiful Louisiana belle Nadia Gates (Kim Basinger). Unfortunately, Nadia's alcohol allergy so alters her personality that she leads Walter on a series of comic adventures culminating in the destruction of both the important dinner and his career. To make matters worse, Nadia's obsessive ex-boyfriend David (John Laroquette) continues to ineptly stalk them. About the point Nadia sobers up, Walter snaps and assaults David, landing himself in jail. David, a lawyer, uses this to his advantage. He arranges to have the charges against Walter dismissed in exchange for Nadia's hand in marriage. When Walter learns of Nadia's sacrifice, he designs a plan to save her from a fate worse than death. Blake Edwards of "Pink Panther" fame directs this adventurous romantic comedy. A tame beginning quickly gains humorous energy. The principle actors show good comic chemistry as do the supporting cast.
