Went out for lunch yesterday. Was suppose to pack lunch home but end up having them in McD's. Since I'm out, I thought why not buy DVDs since I've got a DVD player at home [recently bought in SenQ, it was a display set but in good condition, RM99, cheap isn't it]. So I bought 6 DVD for RM30, each is RM5 which is RM1 more expensive compare to Batu Ferenggi.
It saves money rather than going for movie. Definitely you have to spend on snacks. At least a soft drink...
Anyway, there's one movie, The Blindside starring Sandra Bullock as Leigh Anne Touhy, Tim McGraw as Sean Touhy, Jae Head as Sean Touhy [youngest son] or S.J, Lily Collins as Collins [oldest daughter] and lastly the main cast is Quinton Aaron as Michael Oher or Big Mike.
This movie was produced in 2009 based on a true story . It is about a husband and wife[yes, they're white], Leigh Anne Touhy and Sean Touhy who take in a homeless African-American, Michael 'Big Mike' Oher. Michael has never know who his father was and his mother was a drug addict. Michael have not had any formal education or skills to help him learn [he also never own a bed to sleep before]. The Touhys doesn't only gave him a home to stay but also shower him with care and love he always needed from a family. They also hire a tutor to help him improve in his education to the point he would qualified for NCAA Division 1 athletic scholarship [ I don't have a clue what that is].
A poor,uneducated and over sized teenager is recruited by a major football program where he was groomed to become an athletically and academically successful NFL prospect. Read more about Michael Oher here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Oher
I cried when watching this movie. It brings out the selfishness in us. You feel so lucky for who you're and brings out the humbleness in you. So check out this movie. You can get the DVD in a local DVD shop.....If I have all the money in the world, I will do the same but sadly I can't afford...
