Snowman On Fire

Trailers for The Blind Side are running along with a steady stream of TV spots. I think it’s the required viewing holiday movie for this year, because Michael Lewis captured so much of what can be good in sports. To top it off, he discovered the story accidentally, while looking for something else, very Dorothy-like, making it as sincere as it is astonishing. “The Blind Side: Evolution of a Game”, Lewis’ book from which the movie was adapted, deals with the good in people to the extent that “Liar’s Poker” foreshadowed the ugliness of Wall Street greed.
