What you need to know:
After supposedly the story of the movie ‘The Blind Side’ was a lie, believe it or not, they are asking that Sandra Bullock’s Oscar, which she won for this film, be taken away.
Winning the Oscar is the highest recognition that any actor and actress wishes to take throughout their career., because in addition to rewarding the work they did for a movie, it also means a very important achievement to put on their resume. However, There are those who “want to take away” the statuette that they had so hard to win, such as the curious case of Sandra Bullock.
For those who don’t remember, It was in 2010 when Bullock won the Hollywood Academy Award for Best Actress., for playing Leigh Anne Tuohy in The Blind Side (either A possible dream as they put it in Latin America). And although the competition was tough (because Meryl Streep and Hellen Mirren were in the same category), Sandra took the Oscar home with her.
The Blind Side is based on the story of Michael Oher, a former NFL player who was adopted by the Tuohys. Above all, the film focuses on the relationship between Michael and his adoptive mother, Leigh Anne Tuohy herself. It is thanks to the support of this family that ‘Big Mike’ (as he is known) manages to study and end up playing professional American football.
The case of Michael Oher and ‘The Blind Side’
However, 14 years after Sandra Bullock managed to win the biggest prize in the film industry, on social networks they are putting together a campaign where they are looking for the Oscar to be “taken away” that was won legally. And without a doubt, the reason why they ask for this in the Internet of Things is something completely absurd. But let’s go in parts.
On August 14, the very same michael oher filed a complaint in a Tennessee court that the Tuohys supposedly they didn’t legally adopt himjust as we saw it in the movie from 2009… just as you read it, a true plot twist that no Hollywood screenwriter would have thought of.
Instead, all they supposedly got was keep Michael under a guardianship, which the former player signed on the basis of deception and thanks to her the family reportedly pocketed a lot of dollars telling his life story, while he made nothing.
They are asking that Sandra Bullock “take away” the Oscar
And perhaps at this point you are wondering whatWhat does Sandra Bullock have to do with this whole thing?. Well, it turns out that on social networks, many users began to ask that take away the Oscar for best actress simply and simply because she won it for playing Leigh Anne Tuohy in The Blind Side. No, this is not a joke, this is 100% real, not fake.
In accordance with TMZ, there is no evidence that Bullock had any idea of the drama behind what is going on between Michael Oher and the Tuohy family. Besides, that’s not a good enough reason for the Hollywood Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to I snatched the Oscar from Sandra that she legally won.
This is how things are with Sandra Bullock and the ridiculous reason why they want to take away the Oscar that she took for The Blind Side. Regarding the case of Michael Oher, the father of the family, Sean Tuohy stated that the only option to legally make him part of his family was a guardianship, since he was over 18 years of age..
As if that wasn’t enough, Sean also mentioned that of the estimated $300 million the film earned at the total box office, each member of the Tuohy family took around $14,000…including Oher himself. We still need to know the outcome of this story that undoubtedly shows us that reality is stranger than fiction.
