In the movie The Blind Side I chose the three actors Sandra Bullock (Leigh Anne Tuohy), Tim McGraw (Sean Tuohy), and Quinton Aaron (Michael Oher). Each of these characters has their own classification of acting. Sandra Bullock for example is a wild card being she interprets her roles and brings them to life. Tim McGraw would be considered a wild card actor. Quentin Aaron would be an impersonator.
Sandra Bullock & Quinton Aaron in the Blind Side Sandra Bullock in Miss Congeneality
Sandra Bullock can adapt and become her character. In The Blind Side she plays an upper class, outspoken big hearted mom who takes in a black kid off the street who has nothing but another change of clothes. In this movie she is an impersonator as she is playing the role of the real life Leigh Anne Tuohy the foster mom of Michael Oher. She learned her mannerisms, dialect, and behaviors. There is also an uncanny resemblance between the two also. In the movie Miss Congeniality Bullock plays the exact opposite role. She is an FBI agent who enters the Miss USA Contest to keep the event from being bombed. In this role she is not into high class glam where in The Blind Side she is dressed to the nines in heels and preppy clothes.
Tim McGraw in The Blind Side Tim McGraw in 4 Christmases
Tim McGraw is considered to be a wild card also as he adapts and becomes the characters. When he played Sean Tuohy he was impersonating the real Sean Tuohy. He owned most of the Memphis fast food chains but was laid back and soft spoken. He always backed the decisions of his family and was a great Dad. In the movie 4 Christmases his role was a supporting actor being the immature brother to Vince Vaughn’s dysfunctional family. His character is a backwoods redneck that loved wresting and was all about abusing the brother who had it all when they saw each other. These roles are two completely opposite characters and acting styles.
Quinton Aaron in the Blind Side Aaron Quinton in Be Kind Rewind
The third actor in this movie would be Quinton Aaron. Quinton since he is early in his career would have to be considered a wild card also. The Blind Side was his first leading role where he had to impersonate the real Michael Oher. He became the character. His acting was superb as he became went from a foster kid on the street with no one to being an NFL player. You could see him grow and change once given the chance. He may look big and intimidating but he was soft spoken. His protective instincts for family and football team made the movie. Quinton film debut was in the movie Be Kind Rewind as the Lion King Guy. In this role he was a supporting actor. He is plays a big kind hearted thug who picks the Lion King out of three other movies. His cronies fuss at him asking who was the baby who picked it. Quinton has appeared in many television series such as Law and Order SVU, One Tree Hill. He is a very flexible charter but in these two movies his personality shines.
