The rightful winner

Oh wow! Further taints that awful movie The Blind Side even more. 

[crf13]

Retired NFL star Michael Oher, whose supposed adoption out of grinding poverty by a wealthy, white family was immortalized in the 2009 movie "The Blind Side," petitioned a Tennessee court Monday with allegations that a central element of the story was a lie concocted by the family to enrich itself at his expense.

 

The 14-page petition, filed in Shelby County, Tennessee, probate court, alleges that Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy, who took Oher into their home as a high school student, never adopted him. Instead, less than three months after Oher turned 18 in 2004, the petition says, the couple tricked him into signing a document making them his conservators.

 

The petition further alleges that the Tuohys used their power as conservators to strike a deal that paid them and their two birth children millions of dollars in royalties from an Oscar-winning film that earned more than $300 million, while Oher got nothing for a story "that would not have existed without him." In the years since, the Tuohys have continued calling the 37-year-old Oher their adopted son and have used that assertion to promote their foundation as well as Leigh Anne Tuohy's work as an author and motivational speaker.

 

"The lie of Michael's adoption is one upon which Co-Conservators Leigh Anne Tuohy and Sean Tuohy have enriched themselves at the expense of their Ward, the undersigned Michael Oher," the legal filing says. "Michael Oher discovered this lie to his chagrin and embarrassment in February of 2023, when he learned that the Conservatorship to which he consented on the basis that doing so would make him a member of the Tuohy family, in fact provided him no familial relationship with the Tuohys."

Are you kidding me?! 
 

Gabourey’s performance in Precious was devastating, beautiful, inspiring, and profound. She deserved an Oscar right alongside Monique that year. Wow. I forgot who Sandra won against that year. That’s just egregious. Precious is one of the most moving films I’ve ever watched. Really stays with you after.

Y'all making this about the Oscars this sounds awful

[loveisdead9582]

… wtf. I get conservatorship for the elderly and/or mentally ill but this is another instance where someone has been taken advantage of. The whole system needs to be re-evaluated

[Bears01]

That white evangelical savior complex movie on steroids has always rubbed me the wrong way. 
 

It was always overdone and portrayed him much more dumber than he actually was
