Without a moment's hesitation, she invites him to stay at the Tuohy home for the night. What starts out as a gesture of kindness turns into something more as Michael becomes part of the Tuohy family despite the differences in their backgrounds.

powerful, emotional and inspirational film that truly connects
with audiences. All behind the outstanding performance by America
sweetest actress Sandra Bullock. It is definitely a film that
should not be miss.
