ballad in blue (1964)


aka Blues for Lovers.
"I wont take risks with my child!"
Ray Charles gets involved with a family struggling with a young child who has recently gone blind (Piers Bishop). His mother (Mary Peach) is too smothering to let the child learn. Whilst her boyfriend (Tom Bell) wants her to give the kid some room.
Charles dominates this sometime gritty british drama, filling it with his hits, inbetween trying to help a child.
