When I first came to America, I was shocked by watching a NFL football game. Such war-like sport was a new concept to me. I was even more shocked when I heard about the stardom life of each players in the league. It was so extraordinary to a point where I thought the players never went through hard conflicts. Movie, "The Blind Side" has changed my misunderstanding.
The Blind Side, starring Sandra Bullock, is a film that is based on true story of Michael Oher and All American football player and first round NFL draft pick. Compared to his current state, he went through tough past such as being homeless, abandoned by his own mother, and solitude. His agonizing past stopped when a caring woman, Leigh Anne Tuohy, found Oher on the streets and took him to her house. The movie informs audience about the value of family love by showing Tuohy's unconditional care and love to the lost black man.
The movie fits into category Happiness because viewers can experience happiness through watching Oher's transformation and his eventual success. In the beginning of the movie, Oher is seen as a big blunt man who refuses to talk to and recieve help from others. Through Tuohy's dedication, Oher was able to excel in football, find interest in studying, and become optimistic. Through the film's process, audience can feel the warmth growing inside their heart and become happy with Oher as well.
The movie also falls into category Love because of similar reason written on Home Alone. The movie shows the true value of family bonding. Such care, love, and dedication from all the family members were able to change Oher's personality and brighten his future.
Other than Love, the movie also relates to emotion Fear. In the film, viewers learn that Oher was abandoned by his mother due to her addiction to illegal substances. This part provoked my anger because I was shocked by the irresponsibility shown by Oher's parents. It was depressing to know that such incidents can really happen.
