This past Friday evening, my dad took me on a date and we saw one of the most incredible movies ever made. I mentioned it in my last post, its the true adoption and football story of Michael Oher called The Blind Side.
It holds very true to the actual story of a high class Christian Memphis family who took in an orphan boy of the street and eventually adopted him. 
This movie was BEAUTIFULLY done, incredible music, cinematography, intriguing, fabulous acting, everything. It makes the audience cheer and laugh out loud half of the time and cry the other half. The story is redeeming and uplifting and really, as all adoption stories are, a beautiful picture of the Gospel. The marriage relationship is healthy, the family isn't perfect but they have true love for one another, the story is real, believable, convicting and close to home.
As I said before, adoption advocates--- do not miss the chance to see this AMAZING movie in theatres this week.
And have a blessed Sunday!
Audrey,
ReplyDeleteCouldn't agree with you more! One of the greatest movies ever. I saw the story a year or 2 ago and was thrilled to see they made a movie of it. So great to spread the great side of humanity. I'm also thrilled that after seeing it, I know Braden (who is almost 6) can see it too. How great that they kept it a family movie!
Hey Lisa! How are you? Yeah, it is family friendly, there are DEFINITELY some hard issues dealt with, but, that's life. This movie deals with them appropriately. Happy Thanksgiving, its good to hear from you!
