The Blind Side

My friends suggest me to watch "The Blind Side" (2009).
It is based on real story of Micheal Oher (big mike), belonging to Baltimore Ravens of the NFL.
He grows up in really bad situation, so he does not have any education even he does not have a house where he lives. His parents were devoted when he was a younger.
One day, Leigh Anne Tuohy, a white woman, finds big mike in rainy day. and she realized that he does not have house to live even he is just 17 years old. SJ, Leigh's son, is familiar with big mike; therefore, Leigh decides to be Mike's adapted mother.

Through this story, I rethink what is family, and I really touched with this story. Even the situation is much better than before, still there is segregation in USA. On the other hand, there is a person who is like Leigh as well.
She already has two children, but she tries to save big Mike's life, and she really did her BEST. And big Mike also tries to return her goodwill.
At first, I did not know that this story is based on real story, but when I knew it, I was more touched the story. And I decide that I should be kind to anybody.
