Michael Oher, of “The Blind Side” Fame, Sues Tuohy Family over Conservatorship

Michael Oher had been on the radar of football fans for years because of his talent. He became a household name, however, after The Blind Side put his inspirational story on the screen for people everywhere. However, in a recent petition filed by his lawyers, Oher claims significant parts of that story were more fiction than fact.It should be noted that anytime a person’s life is turned into a film, certain license will be taken with the details. Sometimes, that simply makes for a more cohesive story. The recent adaptation of Corrie Ten Boom’s The Hiding Place is one such example.However, at other times, as appears to be the case here, those details make a substantial difference in how the main character is seen by those who watch the movie.
