Currently filming in Atlanta and scheduled for a November 2009 release, The Blind Side, is a movie about a wealthy couple, Sean and Leigh Anne Touhy, who take in a homeless African-American teenager and mentor him. It is based on the best-selling book, The Blind Side: Evolution Of The Game, written by Michael Lewis and based on the real-life story of Michael Oher. Oher, who inspired the book, was selected in the first round of this year's NFL draft. Set to play the role of Leigh Anne Touhy is Sandra Bullock, one of Hollywood's most popular actresses and former student at East Carolina University. Kathy Bates, an SMU alum, will star alongside Bullock, as a no-nonsense tutor hired by Bullock to knock the teen into shape.
