The producers of 'The Blind Side' are clarifying details about their film.
FILE - Michael Oher, left, Collins Tuohy, second from left, and Leigh Anne Tuohy, whose lives are portrayed in the Oscar-nominated movie "The Blind Side," speak with Pastor Kerry Shook, right, March 3, 2010 at Woodlands Church's Fellowship Campus in The Woodlands, TX. Michael Oher, the former NFL tackle known for the movie “The Blind Side,” filed a petition Monday, Aug.
Oher filed a petition earlier this month asking a judge to terminate a conservatorship initiated by the Tuohys in 2004 — months after he turned 18. The Tuohy family statement said the idea that they sought to profit off Oher is “not only offensive, it is transparently ridiculous.” The statement notes the Tuohys are worth “hundreds of millions of dollars” and the notion they would “connive to withhold a few thousand dollars” defies belief.
The producers continued: “Michael’s academic accomplishments and athletic achievements demonstrate this. His raising of his own children now, who shall know a life of possibility the likes of which Michael never knew as a child, is the ultimate testament to Michael’s own strength and courage.”
