The fact that people around the world still learn this poem, shows that the courage of the Light Brigade at Balaclava was not in vain. Their ride into the “Valley of Death” has not been forgotten.

I love that Sean got a bonding moment in the movie too. It’s always her having those moments.

What a lot of love and determination in that small package called LeAnn Tuohy. She is dynamite. A tiger with a heart of gold. Nothing stands in her way to get her cubs launched. Every child deserves a parent like this. Made me cry.

America needs to watch this movie. Life lessons need too be reminded about sometimes.

Michael made his parents proud with this academic accomplishment. I am an oldest son of parents who never went to high school, never graduated anything. I finished high school on schedule and went on to a B.S. degree from Michigan State. It was very hard but my motivation was to make them proud by doing what they were unable to do. This movie is all about accomplishing difficult tasks by hard work and perseverance. Michael Oher is a real person, so he should inspire others. You can do anything you set your mind to with hard work.

In real life, Michael AND Collins both graduated in the same year...and both went to Ole Miss, where she became a cheerleader...just FYI. However, it was true that Leigh Ann did copy and paste some random black baby's photo from the internet, then sent it to the school.

There are so many of life’s lessons in this clip…The influence of a strong male Father figure on his sons…having courage and honor…to name just two.

She 'found' his baby picture, one determined woman! Gotta love Southern belles. Just don't mess with them. What a radiant smile on Big Mike's face. He finally belongs. Very moving.

I have to respectfully disagree. It takes a whole lot more than a little belief and a little effort. It takes a lot of work to have both courage and honor, everyday in fact, to be the best person you can be. Michael could have given up many a time and succumbed to the criminal gang path, but he did not because he has both courage and honor. It was not easy, but you do not get stronger without a little stress and hard work.

"They're all gonna die" has nothing to do with The Charge of the Light Brigade. It has to do with Michael's background. The other kid could have been a great football player, just like Michael, even better. But he lacked honor and courage, choosing to follow the wrong leader. The guys from Michael's old neighborhood... they're all gonna die.

I loved Kathy Bates in this. "Who would figure we would have a black son before we let a democrat in the house"

3:29 Sean:wait a minute u broke into the priciples computer? Leanne:hm omg best lines ever

I got chills throughout my body at the last part of the poem!!!

Thank you for adding captions for your deaf and hard of hearing viewers! This was a very thought-provoking (and humbling) scene. It's definitely a concept that we should impart upon our youth!

my teacher used this clip in class and we have an essay on honor and courage, and this clip is really helping with the essay.

This is a great story, movie shows us what courage and honor can do, put everyone else first, and never give up on your dream. In the case someone saves you and brings you into there family as if they were your own, given the tools, anything is possible... God Bless, and thankyou Micheal Ore, you are an inspiration to us all...

Daisy. What a beautiful movie!! Great performances - and the relationships within the family have their moments of weakness and strength just like any family; but to see Michael blossoming into the best human being he could possibly be, was a joy to see.

I remember black Americans gave such scathing reviews of this movie as they had an issue with “a white woman rescuing a brother”. As a fully paid up member of the global “Oreo Cookie community” (their sentiments, not ours); I thought they were talking out of their arses. Kindness has no borders.

Kindness is kindness, skin is skin, and bad attitudes are bad attitudes. They should know that it doesn't take a particular skin tone to show kindness, to care.

When words are music to our ears . . . Michael's essay. Remember your favorite moment in THE BLIND SIDE? The moment when Michael has his epiphany - after his new “Dad” quotes from memory, the climax of 'Charge of the Light Brigade': “Into the valley of death, rode the 600 . . . Theirs, not to reason why - Theirs, but to 'do-or-die'.” Inspired by his Dad's football analogy, “when the coach messes up,” Mike sits down to compose his thoughtful response - writing with an 'artless' style and a lyrical (not to say musical) beauty that rings true. I awake at a quarter to four and I'm about to cue up the DVD to transcribe Michael's “inspired and inspiring” words. Permit an aside: After determining that I'd never seen The Blind Side, my sister in Toronto sent me both Blu-ray and 'Made in Mexico' DVD versions for my birthday last month. Poised to transcribe (I type fast) I realized that this 'best scene' must be the favorite of millions - and is already posted at KZread, right? Sure enough. Four minutes of movie magic. Thanks for sharing isee -- "12 years ago" I see, with 2.8M views as of this date (4/18/2024).

Sweetheart, it's the mentality of those you have the fortune . . . or misfortune of being 'brought up' and influenced by that can sometimes make or break you, not the colour of their skin, nor their status, nor their wealth or lack thereof. All colours, all races, all people, whether rich or poor or inbetween have their bad guys and good guys. I understand how easy it is to wish for a different life and even wish to be someone else but you are you and I am me and we have to try be the best us we can be. You are valuable - keep your head up!

really good scene

...any fool can have courage, but honor...

Starting at 2:09, he says "didn't at least one of the 600 guys think about giving up" just as he walks past the guy he used to play football with who is watching him. That timing is not an accident.

Love this part

I don’t know this movie, so I’ll comment on this material alone. Honour… there are crimes committed in the name of ‘honour’. Whatever positive connotation ‘honour’ had, it’s corrupted now. The same for courage. Soldiers are being barked at about courage, in order to make them put themselves in the way of harm and kill others. No. It’s about commitment to a set of sane values and integrity. The rest follows.
