TL;DR Summary

The producers of the movie "The Blind Side" have responded to the recent legal dispute between former NFL player Michael Oher and the Tuohy family, whose story inspired the film. Oher filed a petition claiming that the Tuohys profited financially from his life story and had ultimate control over his contracts. The producers clarified that the Tuohys were not paid millions of dollars by Alcon Entertainment and that the contracts did not include significant payouts in the event of the film's success. They also defended the movie against claims of being fake or a lie. Oher alleged that he was led to believe the conservatorship was equivalent to an adoption and only recently learned that it gave him no familial ties to the Tuohys. The Tuohys have expressed their intention to end Oher's conservatorship after nearly 20 years.
