Summary of The Blind Side

"The Blind Side" depicts the remarkable true story of Michael Oher, a homeless African-American youngster from a broken home, taken in by the Touhys, a well-to-do white family who help him fulfill his potential. At the same time, Oher's presence in the Touhys' lives leads them to some insightful self-discoveries of their own. Living in his new environment, the teen faces a completely different set of challenges to overcome. As a football player and student, Oher works hard and, with the help of his coaches and adopted family, becomes an All-American offensive left tackle. In the latest chapter of his inspiring story, Oher was a First Round draft pick in the 2009 NFL Draft, selected by the Baltimore Ravens. The Touhys were there to share the moment with him.

This movie made mecry in a happy way. That rarely happens. As soon as I saw this movie, I knew I had to buy it! It was touching and compassionate in a way that we all wish the world and the people in it could be. Not many people can make themselves...
Nice film if you're the Hallmark Hall Of Fame type or watches The Lifetime Channel. What we have here is the true story of NFL star Michael Oher, a troubled black youth who is taken in by Leigh Tuohy and her family. A nice, simple and inspirational...
