The Quicky Fake Adoptions & Oscar Lies: The Truth About The Blind Side
This week former NFL star Michael Oher, known for being the inspiration behind the movie The Blind Side, filed a petition in a US court claiming that everything we saw in the movie about his life was actually a lie.
In the movie adaptation of his life, we saw Oher, an American footballer adopted by Sean and Leigh Anne Tuohy who helped him overcome his tragic upbringing and achieve sporting greatness.
In this episode of The Quicky, we take a look at what is really happening with the Tuohy's, and speak to a reporter who has been covering the case.
