The Blind Side with Sandra Bullock. As cute as any movie can get. Sandra Bullock won both a Golden Globe and an Oscar for her role as Leigh Anne Tuohy. Photo from: bostonherald.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Leigh Anne (Sandra Bullock)<\/a> is an efficient multi-tasker. Being happily married with 2 kids, a successful designer, cheerleaders\u2019 trainer, and socially active, her hands are quite full. But one day she meets a big, young guy going to her kids\u2019 school and realizes she just might need to help this poor, black\u00a0 boy out. Mike has nowhere to stay so she invites him to their home to spend the night. Realizing, he has nowhere else to go, she decides to make some more permanent arragements for him. And as unusual as their circumstances are, everyone in the family seems to have liked this guy and they all help him become a part of the family, succeed in school and eventually in football.<\/p>\n

The movie is the true life story of football player Michael Oher. Sandra Bullock won an Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role for her portrait of Leigh Anne. This is an uplifting, heart-warming and an entertaining experience. It is one of the rare movies where I enjoy to see a lot of football going on. All actors do a good job but my favorite is the son of the family, played by Jae Head. His negotiation and coaching scenes are just a riot to watch. A should see. However as good as Sandra was in her role and as much as I like her, I failed to see what was it that won her the award. A friend of mine made a funny comment on this:<\/p>\n

\u201cWell, Helen Mirren and Meryl Streep had won and the other 2 were young actresses and could win later. Sandra has been working hard so they thought it might be time to give her an award\u201d. That does makes sense in a weird way, I suppose. After all, the academy does work in mysterious ways.<\/p>\n

Entertaining and emotional. 7.7 on IMDB.<\/p>\n
