you CAN judge a movie by its trailer.

i have no apprehensions about judging this movie solely on the racist implications of its trailer and my own unwaivering repulsion toward any work featuring poorly executed southern accents. i don't intend to ever watch it, except maybe for a good laugh one day on abc family or to see phil fulmer.

as you can imagine, i was delighted to read this funny, accusatory review over on carly googlez, entitled "The Blind Side: What Would Black People Do Without Nice White Folks?"

"You're changing that boy's life," one applauds. Her response, of course: "No. He's changing mine."

i can't want to be a doyenne.

just makin movies to make us feel better about ourselves...if the rolls were reversed and a black family took in a white boy it would be a comedy

Sandra's accent is dead on. Don't hate on those nice white folk for doing something nice.
