Tisdagsfilm: The Blind Side
I tisdags såg vi filmen "The Blind Side". Sandra Bullock fick en oscar för bästa kvinnliga huvudroll, så trots att det var en sport film (som vi annars brukar dissa) kände vi att den nog skulle vara sevärd. Filmen som är baserad på en verklig historia handlar om Michael Oher, en hemlös pojke traumatiserad pojke som tas hand om av en familj och blir en duktig amerikansk fotbollsspelare.
Från IMDB:
Based on the true story of Leigh Anne and Sean Tuohy who take in a homeless teenage African-American, Michael "Big Mike" Oher. Michael has no idea who is father is and his mother is a crack head. Michael has had little formal education and few skills to help him learn. Leigh Anne soon takes charge however, as is her nature, ensuring that the young man has every opportunity to succeed. When he expresses an interest in football, she goes all out to help him, including giving the coach a few ideas on how best to use Michael's skills. They not only provide him with a loving home, but hire a tutor to help him improve his grades to the point where he would qualify for an NCAA Division I athletic scholarship. Michael Oher was the first-round pick of the Baltimore Ravens in the 2009 NFL draft.

Eftersom filmen var baserad på en verklig historia var den inte så förutsägbar som en film kan vara (Som att allting går bra fram till en viss punkt sen måste det skita sig för att sen bli bra igen). Filmen bjöd på många skratt men också snyft stunder. Skådespelet var som förväntat på top och Sandra Bullock gjorde verkligen en riktigt bra prestation. Även om man "visste" hur det skulle sluta höll filmen mitt intresse hela vägen igenom. Filmen är definitivt sevärd och jag kan tänka mig att se den en gång till. Så missa inte att se The Blind Side!!!
