Blind Date (1959) British Murder Mystery Film / Hardy Krüger, Stanley Baker, Micheline Presle

Blind Date (U.S. title: Chance Meeting) is a 1959 British murder mystery film directed by Joseph Losey and starring Hardy Krüger, Stanley Baker, and Micheline Presle. It was written by Ben Barzman and Millard Lampell based on the 1955 novel Blind Date by Leigh Howard. Plot: Jan Van Rooyer, a young Dutch artist, working in a London private art gallery, cheerfully arrives at the large mews flat owned by Jacqueline Cousteau. The door is open and he goes in and has a drink and puts on a loud jazz record. Around 20 minutes later uniformed police arrive and start questioning him. Inspector Morgan arrives soon after. They have had a phone call from the flat and on investigation, Jacqueline is found dead in the bedroom – so Jan has much explaining to do. He explains the relationship in a series of vignettes. They had met in the gallery and she had asked for private lessons in his studio. She tells him she is married, but when she starts to model for him, they become lovers, despite their age difference and very different social backgrounds. The investigation finds little evidence of his innocence but it proves that Jacqueline had more than one lover. During the police search, Jan had pocketed an envelope of cash in the flat with his name on it. The inspector finds it and the £500 inside is concluded to be a "pay off". However, Jacqueline rematerialises. The dead woman in the flat is a nightclub singer and not her. Jacqueline is married to a high ranking public figure: Lord Fenton. The police reveal the dead woman is her husband's mistress, "Jacqueline Cousteau". The wife had assumed her identity, then killed her.
