The Blind Side (PG) 128 mins
Synopsis: Sandra Bullock (The Proposal), Tim McGraw (Friday Night
Lights) and Oscar® winner Kathy Bates (Misery) start in The Blind Side, the remarkable true story of All-American football star Michael Oher.

Teenager Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) is surviving on his own, virtually homeless, when he is spotted on the street by Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock). Learning that the young man is one of her daughter's classmates, Leigh Anne insists that Michael (wearing shorts and a t-shirt in the dead of winter) stay at the Tuohy home for the night.

What starts out as a gesture of kindness becomes much more as Michael becomes part of the Tuohy family. And as the family helps Michael fulfill his potential, both on and off the football field, Michael's presence in the Tuohys' lives leads them to some insightful selfdiscoveries of their own.
