      Human love and protection

      Michael `Oher, black, big man, low IQ, not talkative. Since he was a child, his mother told him to close his eyes when encountering bad things. This is probably how he developed a strong sense of protection, and the way he protects himself is to close himself. What I saw was his silence, but in fact, he also longed for friends like ordinary people. He would take the initiative to say hello to the little girl on the swing, and the corners of his mouth would rise when he heard SJ's...

         Michael Oher, deep autism, unhappy childhood, loneliness under the fence, over-consciousness of self-protection. He is afraid of strangers, he tries to communicate with strangers, like he used to say hello to two innocent little...

      Weakness is the window between people

      no one is perfect. Everyone has a weak underbelly, but some people can see it and some people can't. Self-knowledge allows us to see our own weaknesses; compassion allows us to appreciate the pain of others.
         Regarding the film itself, I think there are "weak points", for example, how could the white mother in the film suddenly accept Big Mike who looks like Tarzan to others? Is it the "goodness of one thought" that the sages said? Regarding these details, it is meaningless to think too...

    Behind the scenes gags

    1. Although the film is adapted from the novel of the same name by Michael Lewis, this film only selects one of the main lines of the novel to be adapted.
      2. The original novel was published in 2006, and the director developed the plot of this story to 2009.
      3. Rugby player Michael Och weighs 344 pounds, which is about 156 kilograms. His actor Quinton Aaron has a weight that complements the prototype: 380 pounds, which is about 172...

    Evaluation action

    This is a typical American movie with the main theme. Despite its hypocritical side, it really touches people's hearts. Just like "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", it uses an ordinary person's personalized road to success to interpret the level of social development. And national sentiments. The film interprets the blind spots of life from two perspectives. Mike grew up in a nefarious black settlement, but he has always maintained...

    Movie quotes

    • Leigh Anne Touhy: Sean and I have been talking and Michael, if you're gonna accept a football scolarship we think it should be to Tennesee. And I promise that I will be at every game cheering for you.

      Michael Oher: Every game.

      Leigh Anne Touhy: Every game. But I will not wear that gaudy orange, I will not. It is not my colour wheel and I'm not gonna wear it.

    • [first lines]

      Leigh Anne Touhy: There's a moment of orderly silence before a football play begins. Players are in position, linemen are frozen, and anything is possible. Then, like a traffic accident, stuff begins to randomly collide. From the snap of the ball to the snap of the first bones, closer to 4 seconds than 5.

      [video rewinds]

      Leigh Anne Touhy: One-mississippi - Joe Theismann, the Redskins quarterback takes the snap and hands-off to his running mate. Two-mississippi - it's a trick play, a flea-flicker. And the running back tosses it back to the quarterback. Three-mississippi - up 'til now the play's been defined by what the quarterback sees; it's about to be defined by what he doesn't. Four-mississippi - Lawrence Taylor is the best defensive player in the NFL. And has been from the time he walked onto the fielded as a rookie. He will also change the game of football as we know it... Legendary quarterback Joe Theismann never played another down of football.

      Leigh Anne Touhy: Now, y'all would guess that more often than not, the highest paid player on an NFL team is the quarterback. And you'd be right. But what you probably don't know is that more often than not, the second highest paid player is, thanks to Lawrence Taylor, a left tackle. Because, as every housewife knows, the first check you write is for the mortgage, but the second is for the insurance. The left tackle's job is to protect the quarterback from what he can't see coming. To protect his blind side.

    • Leigh Anne Touhy: I said you could thank me later. It's later, Bert.
