The Blind Side
Nobody just can’t say no to stories of starting from the bottom till reaching the top because they provide so much optimism. Michael Oher’s tale is exactly that; despite his success as a professional football player, he experienced plenty of difficulty in his child years that include great deprivation and multiple foster facilities.
The footballer’s plight is noticed by Leigh Anne Tuohy. Through her efforts and compassion for the young man, he was able to experience the affection that he needed which then also fueled him in his journey to reach the top.
Ali
The great Muhammad Ali was played by actor Will Smith in this beautiful presentation of his journey. The movie follows Ali for ten years, covering not just crucial moments in his profession but also current events happening in the socio-political scene in the country. People who were in charge of conducting the research for this movie did not leave any stones unturned so as to present a fair image of the fighter.
Smith, surprisingly though, was not interested in taking the position after the project was made available. But when the man himself asks you to do it, you just have to do it.
