Sandra Bullock owns this role

Rating: 10/10 (3 August 2010)

Who was to know that #74 for the Baltimore Ravens Michael Oher had a history like this. I didn't even know that this movie was about his life and his adoptive family the Touhys till i saw it. What a movie it is very inspirational and a must see for any poor street kids out there that would rather spend the time making something out of themselves then spend the time planning drive bis with their posse. Michael Oher's parents were definitely not the Cleavers his mother a crack addict and mother of 12 children and his father an inmate at a local penitentiary who he was taken from at a very young age by children's services during a police raid on his home went through ( to put it mildly) a few years of hell until interior designer Leigh Anne Touhy on one freezing thanksgiving night find Michael walking to find shelter in only a t shirt in freezing cold weather offer their home and to share thanksgiving dinner with them, eventually taking him and adopting him. They give Michael all the warmth and care of a family that he so longed for and end up signing him up for football. That starts what is now after the 2009 entry draft into the NFL,l history. We need more people and stories like his out there the world would be a much better place! It would be nice to see Sandra Bullock who actually became Leigh Anne Touhy during this film to win the Oscar it would be her first if she does. Absolutely see this flick its a winner all the way around.
