The Blind Side

This is the movie based on the book I was telling you guys about - "The Blind Side".

I like the concept and Sandra Bullock's character, but I'm worried that it is a large dramatization of his life. I know Michael Oher said there were some things that were exaggerated in the book, so a second-hand rendition is going to be even further from the truth. (For example, I don't remember a part where she goes "down to the hood" and threatens some guy). Still, I know I'm going to see it soon after it comes out. My favorite part of the movie is going to be seeing Nick Saban in LSU gear - he'll do anything for money.

Yeah, it's going to be dramatized and exaggerated, but that doesn't mean it's going to be a bad movie, only that it's not a perfectly accurate telling of the story.

I'm probably going to see it too.
