The Blind Side is a true story of a young kid in Memphis who rose to great heights in football largely due to the kind heart of a Leigh Anne Touhy who helped him when she saw someone who needed assistance. It's a sweet story and in many ways unbelievable. Most of us aren't lucky enough to know a person quite as open and kind. While the movie was successful in many ways I don't necessarily understand all the accolades it got this past year during award season. Sandra Bullock certainly stepped out of her comfort zone to be sure, but best performance of the year? I'm just not sure. As for the film as a whole, it's a phenomenal story - not necessarily an incredible movie. It is certainly worth the watch.
