The Blind Side / Going The Distance

Feature double bill. Biopic 'The Blind Side' (2009), based on the book 'The Blind Side - Evolution of a Game' by Michael Lewis, tells the true story of American football star Michael Oher. The homeless son of a crack addict, over-sized black teenager Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) is taken in by the wealthy white Tuohy family after Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) finds him wandering the bitterly cold streets wearing only a thin T-shirt. The Tuohys hire a private tutor, Miss Sue (Kathy Bates), to help Michael with his studies at the mostly white Wingate Christian High School, but it is on the football field that he really excels. As Michael is given the opportunity to fulfil his potential both on and off the football field, his presence in the Tuohys' lives leads them to valuable self-discoveries of their own. Bullock won the 2010 Best Actress Academy Award for her performance. In romantic comedy 'Going the Distance' (2010) Erin (Drew Barrymore) and Garrett (Justin Long) meet on a blind date but they both know that they don't want a serious relationship; after all, Erin is leaving town in only six weeks' time. Vowing to keep things light, the two embark on a fun short-term fling, hampered only by the antics of Garrett's eccentric roommate. But as the time comes for Erin to leave, they both realise they feel more deeply for one another and decide at the last minute to try a long-distance relationship - despite repeated warnings from their friends. Can they overcome the challenges posed by the many miles that divide them and do what it takes to 'go the distance'?
