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.
Wow. If all of that is true, that’s pretty scummy. I don’t understand how people can take advantage of someone like that.
Well they wrote a story where they made him into a helpless, socially stunted imbecile and that they were responsible for every single accomplishment of his. None of this story is surprising, assuming it’s true.
The movie is a gross portrayal of several negative stereotypes surrounds black Americans.
Other than white guilt I do not see where the nominations or love for this story could come otherwise originate.
Wow yeah complete scum. They essentially conned this kid and the rest of the world. WOW. this is the lowest of slimes.
