In the movie scene from “The Blind Side” there is an allusion to the poem “Charge of the Light Brigade.” Write a note to a fellow student explaining why you think the dad explains the poem to Michael the way he does. What is he comparing the subject of the poem to that would make sense to Michael? Compare and contrast what you know about the poem with how the dad explains it to Michael. How do you feel about this use of the poem in the movie? Explain whether this is helpful to Michael, why or why not?
