Even years after its 2009 release, The Blind Side is still honored as a classic film, primarily due to its stellar and iconic cast. Based on the book of the same name by Michael Lewis, The Blind Side is based on the true story of offensive lineman Michael Oher, who was taken in and educated by the Tuohy family in the early 2000s. In 2023, controversy emerged around The Blind Side‘s true story, as the real Mike Oher has spoken out about his contentious relationship with the Tuohy family. Nevertheless, the film still remains an important part of the American sports film canon.
