Throughout the book‚ numerous chapters were dedicated to talking about the history of the importance of the left tackle and other players in the game‚ but in the movie‚ almost

    “The Blind Side” is a wonderful movie that touches your heart when watching it. A great real story that forces you to dig deep inside your soul. When I watched it‚ I was taken by three impressive scenes. The first was a scene in which Sandra Bullock lies on her bed smiling after bringing Mike home with her. It’s a smile of content and of real happiness. It’s that kind of smile we draw on our faces when feeling satisfied and fulfilled with goodness. This is what real happiness is about; it’s not wealth

    marginalized‚ unsociable and alone. This notion is extensively explored within Peter Skrzynecki’s poem‚ St. Patrick’s College‚ from the anthology Immigrant Chronicle‚ and Richard Kelly’s 2001 film Donnie Darko as both texts illustrate the protagonist’s limited and negative experience of belonging through their interaction with others resulting in acts of insubordination. Contrary to negative belonging‚ Peter Skrzynecki’s poem‚ 10 Mary Street- also from the anthology Immigrant Chronicle-explores the notion

    I suspected‚ after reading Megan Basham’s review (below)‚ that the filmThe Blind Side would be worth seeing. So my wife and I went this weekend‚ and we were truly blindsided by a film abundantly rich in its humanity and unabashedly Christian in its underpinnings -- a modern day object lesson in Luke 10:25-37 and Matthew 25:31-47.         Not only that‚ it’s a true story.         You can read the synopsis of the plot below. What that won’t tell you is that Sandra Bullock (commanding and authentic
