When an epidemic of blindness ravages a city, authorities confine the afflicted to an empty hospital – where criminals soon take over. An eyewitness to this nightmare guides seven strangers out into the barren, looted streets. A magnificent parable of loss and disorientation. By the Nobel laureate. The movie stars Julianne Moore and Mark Ruffalo. "Chilling...
