What's it about: This one is about Michael Oher (Aaron) a homeless black kid found freezing on the streets by a well-to-do housewife Leigh Anne Tuohy (Bullock). Similar in nature to the subject of another film u2014 Lee Daniel's Precious, this one might not be that dark or gritty but it does tell the same story. Set against the backdrop of football, we soon find Oher having gifts and talents other children in his schoolu00a0 might not have. Along the way, the movie touches several topics like racism and prejudice.
