It was an act of kindness that is hard to believe. That was a cold, frosty winter night and Tuohy family, a white wealty Christian family in Memphis, were driving their way to home when they took notice of that black teen wearing just T-shirt and shorts, they stop the car and he told that he was homeless. Family took him in, made him a family member and that little homeless Michael Oher became a star footballer afterwards.
“There are people being charitable 24/7 on their street to their neighbor; they just don’t get a movie made about them,” says Sandra Bullock, star of “The Blind Side.” “And grand gestures like the Tuohys’ … but their gesture wasn’t as grand as what they got back from Michael.”
When asked why they did it, Sean family replied:
“Because he needed some clothes. That’s all it really was. Then he needed a place to sleep. The depths of need never stopped. And she got so far into it, she couldn’t get out of it. And she fell in love with him.”
Today Michael Oher is going well. He was selected by the Baltimore Ravens in the first round of 2009 and don’t like to address the press. “The Blind Side” is the name of the movie based on true story of Michael Oher. The movie released on Friday and proved a hit.

This is an excellent movie. I love the story and that it’s true makes it even richer. It was the best role and movie in which Sandra Bullock has ever acted, and she did so well at it. Quinton Aaron played his role so well that he made the movie as much as Bullock did. I will be purchasing this when it releases to DVD.
