A scene the movie should keep is when Leigh Anne Tuohy shows Michael his room in their house and he tells her hes never had a bed before. Another scene they should keep is when Michael always comes home with extra food to keep for himself even after Mr. Tuohy told him he didn't have to do that because he would always have food as long as he stayed at their house. The last scene they should keep is the scene where Sean Tuohy finds Michael walking to the school and asks him why he's going to the school and Michael tells him because its warm.  

They shouldn't keep the football stats in the movie unless they are related to Michael because they don't make the book any better or worse, it makes it a little confusing because they would be talking about one thing and then jump to another thing within a few sentences and it's hard to keep up with it.    

I like the way the filmmakers made the movie because they really emphasize what Michael's life was like before he met the Tuohys. They show a bit of what his mother was like and why he had to live with Big Tony. The movie makes more sense to me than the book does at the point I'm at right now because it doesn't include the football stats unless they were related to Michael.
