This year I am going to see what I think may be a real gem--The Blind Side. This movie shares the heartwarming true-life story of Michael Oher, who went from being homeless to a college graduate and a first round pick in last year's NFL Draft.
If you haven't had a chance to read The New York Times article "The Ballad of Big Mike" by Michael Lewis please take the time to do so. It is inspiring and well worth the read.
And just in case I haven't provided you with enough about why am I psyched to see this movie, check out this trailer. It's been months seen I first saw the preview, but I still can't make it through it without crying--I can only imagine how I am going to react when I actually see the entire film.

OMG Shalonda..that preview was so moving. Don't feel bad because it brought tears to my eyes too! Thank you for posting that. I've never even heard of it.
I have watched the preview a couple times and I get choked up when they talk about him not having a bed.
I can't wait to see this movie but I plan on taking a box of tissue.
I really want to see The Blind Side as well! I saw the preview and it seems really good. Let me know what you think! :)
