About Blind Date

Blind Date is a 1987 American romantic comedy film directed by Blake Edwards and written by Dale Launer. The film stars Bruce Willis, in his first credited leading film role, alongside Kim Basinger, John Larroquette, and William Daniels. It follows workaholic Walter Davis (Willis), whose promising blind date with Nadia Gates (Basinger) descends into a series of increasingly chaotic misadventures after she begins drinking alcohol, provoking the attention of her obsessive former boyfriend. Originally developed as a vehicle for Madonna and Sean Penn, the project was recast after Edwards joined as director and requested revisions to the screenplay. Principal photography took place between May and July 1986 in Los Angeles, Santa Monica, and Culver City. The film's score was composed by Henry Mancini. Released by Tri-Star Pictures on March 27, 1987, Blind Date opened at number one at the North American box office and grossed $39.3 million against a $16 million budget. Critical reception was negative, with reviewers generally praising individual comic set pieces while criticizing the film's characterization and uneven execution.
