Love at First Sight is a 1977 Canadian romantic comedy film directed by Rex Bromfield,[1]
Love at First Sight is a romantic comedy about a young woman, Shirley (Mary Ann McDonald), and a clumsy blind man named Roy (Dan Aykroyd). The pair flees to Niagara Falls to open a restaurant when Shirley's controlling and unpleasant father Frank (George Murray) objects to their relationship.
The film was critically panned at the time.[citation needed] Aykroyd was still with Saturday Night Live at the time the picture was made and this is his first film. The theme song was "Do You Believe in Love at First Sight" written by Ron Roker, Gerry Shury, Chris Rea and Frank McDonald and recorded by Dionne Warwick. The song had been performed a year earlier by Polly Brown.
