Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2011)

The Screenplay " The blindside" is an awarding winning film starring Quinton Aaron, (Michael Oher)Sandra bullock (Leigh Anne Tuohy), Tim McGraw (Sean Tuohy), Lily Collins (Collins Tuohy), and Jae Head (S.J Tuohy).The film is based on the life of a lost, homeless African American teenager named Michael Oher. Michael's mother is a drug addict, and lives in the inner city projects "Hurt village". Due to his mother's lack of stability he was taken out of her custody. Overall Michael had a challenging childhood, endured a lot of pain and observed some horrible events. As Michael grew older he lost some of his close to the streets. He slept on couches of neighborhood friends. Eventually, luck landed him in a popular private school. Although Michael had what would be consider an ugly past he was a very manner able young man. His story touched a lot of people hearts. He was adopted by Tuohy's, a wealthy suburban white family. Over time the Touhy's helped him fulfill his potential as a student and athlete. Michael Oher became the NFL first draft pick. I think this film is excellent. However I did find the theme a little hard to decipher. Some would say that this nothing more than a bibliography of an NFL player's life whose story was really touching. Other may say this is just and demonstration of white guilt. I think that the theme is that everyone story is different, but at the end everyone has something that could be an asset to someone else. Coach Cotton used his creditability to get Michael in to school. In Return Michael made won championships for his sports team. The Tuohy's used their wealth and family oriented lifestyle to change to give Michael a second chance at life. In Return Michael embraced protected and showed them how life is on the less fortunate side. During the film some of the techniques I noticed were Subjective view point. During some of the scenes at the actual football games once Michael started to tackle his opponents you could feel his rage, and intensity. Another point of view used was the director's interpretive point of view. There were numerous of scenes where the director has manipulated the viewpoint of the viewers to make us see things in a different way. The lighting also had it effects on this film. It seemed to me that lighting in the suburban areas where brighter, versus the lighting in "hurt Village". During the scene where there was a lot of thought the lighting was dim. For example when Mrs. Tuohy was in the bed wondering if she had made the correct decision inviting Michael into her home. The Blindside is a very good film. I would give this movie five stars. The actors did I very great job fulfilling the roles of the characters. Not only did the actors learn something from one another, but it taught me some things too. I learned that some may not been given the same things as me, but to treat them as if they were equivalent to me. In return you may receive something even greater than what you had offered in the first place.
