Is Your Favorite Movie Historically Accurate?

The Blind Side (2009)

The Blind Side stars Sandra Bullock as the caring foster mother of NFL player Michael Oher. While the film was actually based on the 2006 book, just how accurate was the movie in portraying some of the events that took place?

Well, let’s hear it from the horse’s mouth! Oher spoke about the movie and said he liked it, but only ‘as a movie’. Perhaps there was a little too much artistic license to be had in the development? While the journey might have changed on screen, we all know the happy ending was the same.
