The Blind Side


Have you seen the movie The Blind Side starring Sandra Bullock and Tim McGraw? It's currently playing at the Cinema Center, Williamsport and at Great Escape, Lycoming Mall. The movie is based on a new book in our library, The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game by Michael Lewis. This is the true story of Michael Oher, a homeless and traumatized boy who became an All American football player and first round NFL draft pick with the help of a caring woman and her family. Michael Jerome Oher (born May 28, 1986) is an offensive tackle for the Baltimore Ravens of the National Football League.  He played college football at the University of Mississippi for the Ole Miss Rebels.
Read Michael Oher's exciting true story.....and as I've said before, read the book before you see the movie!!!
