# 1 The blind side

The Blind Side is a great movie I enjoyed watching it. It is very funny and I love watching the movie, because I love the actors and it is based on a true story. It feels good watching the movie about the main character just to watch him play every year on The Ravens.

Her easygoing millionaire husband Sean (Tim McGraw) is too good to be true, her cheerleader daughter Collins (Lily Collins) is pure whitebread, and Collins's kid brother, tousle-haired little tyke SJ (Jae Head), deserved some sort of mini-Oscar for being annoying. Bullock is Leigh Anne Tuohy, the formidable woman from Memphis, Tennessee, who one evening notices a big, unhappy black boy called Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron), shuffling out of her son's school with ragged clothes and, apparently, no place to sleep. She takes him under her wing, into her home and into her heart. There are pre-emptive scenes coolly nipping any worries in the bud – she raises and dismisses the fear that he might steal something. A friend is icily rebuked  over lunch for wondering about Michael's proximity to Leigh Anne's lovely teenage daughter ("Shame on you!"). Leigh Anne herself seeks out Michael's drug-addicted mother and, without needing to ask, secures the woman's heartfelt blessing for what she is doing: "You're a fine Christian lady!"

Soon Michael is taking to the football field and, after a wobbly start, is a natural and definite college sports scholarship material. But wait. Like all the Tuohy family, Leigh Anne loves football. Could it be that she was grooming Michael as a mouthwatering gift to her football-crazy alma mater, the University of Mississippi, a big part of her social status and the place where she undoubtedly hopes to send her own kids? And if she was, what on earth is so bad about that? Everyone wins, don't they? Aren't conservatives allowed to show compassion? Especially as Leigh Anne's compassion, unlike that of whingeing liberals, actually gets   things done?

The Blind Side Proposal

I will write an essay about the blind side.  The blind side is one of the most popular movies that came out in March of 2010. This movie relates to racism and based on limitations of being poor or wealthy.

In this essay I will argue that you can do what you put your mind too. Whether you’re black white, poor, wealthy you can still do anything.  If people stand in your way, you can work around them and be kind to everyone because you don’t know who is going to be there for you in your future.

                I will begin my essay with people in America live with so many regrets because of what happened in their life as a child.  I will also include my thesis statement (Despite some people the blind side may be helpful for people to watch and learn some life lessons.)

                The summary about this movie is a millionaire family takes in an African American that is challenged at school work but in but is a great football player. The family pays for a tutor so he can become what he’s always wanted to do. Was play football. Everyone keeps putting him down and saying he can’t do it because he is challenged in school. Well he proved them wrong
