Matthew Luke Brady While Driving Miss Daisy isn't what i call a best picture winner, since there were more deserving movies that came out that year, but the movie shouldn't get hate just for that.The movie is sweet, charming and heartwarming. This is the kind of film that granny's go to watch and after it's over their something like "That was nice". Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy were excellent in this movie, as both of them had great chemistry and very entertaining conversations between them.It dose get kind of dull at times and i do wish the films pasting was a bit better, but that's just me. I say it's worth checking out, because there's plenty of things to like and appreciate in this movie.

grantss Moving story. Simple plot, sensitively and lovingly told. Bruce Beresford's direction is spot-on, giving a warmth and subtlety to the movie. Ultimately, a movie about racial tolerance and development, though the racial prejudices and issues of the time aren't too apparent.. The one failing of the movie is that it does pull its punches with regard to examining the racial and social injustices and issues of the day.Superb performances by Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman in the lead roles. Both received Oscar nominations, and Tandy won Best Actress, making her, at nearly 81, the oldest winner of a competitive Oscar.Dan Aykroyd, well known as a comedy actor (SNL, Blues Brothers etc), is surprisingly decent in a dramatic role.

ahalida I've been meaning to watch this film for a very long time. Now that I watched it I'm stunned! What a movie with utterly superb performance and Morgan Freeman is astonishing as ever! The storyline tries to explain to us that no matter what, a person can touch your heart and become your best friend. It doesn't necessarily needs to be your relative. It can also be your driver. This film deserved all the Oscars for the categories it received in 1990. I always knew that great movies are left behind in 80s and 90s. Miss that! I recommend to watch it as it is a beautiful drama. It will touch your hear in every bit. Go fot it!

Ross622 Bruce Beresford's adaptation of Alfred Uhry's Pulitzer prize winning play (which takes place between 1948 and 1973) about an old Jewish woman named Daisy Werthan (played by Jessica Tandy in an Oscar winning performance) who is in a car accident and then her son Boolie (played by Dan Aykroyd in an Oscar nominated performance) who then hires a chauffeur who can't be fired by Daisy named Hoke Colburn (played by Morgan Freeman in an Oscar nominated performance) who at first the two of them were not getting along too well, and then in the end of the film they got along very well and were considered to be the best of friends. the film is a wonderful character study between both Daisy and Hoke and as well as the fact that both of the performances by both Tandy and Freeman bring their characters to life in this 1989 film version, as well as Dan Aykroyd as Boolie. The thing about this film that I loved the most was the relationship between Daisy and Hoke because it was to me just flawlessly perfect, as well as the story, the screenplay because it demonstrates such a nice story, the warm hearted direction for the film, as well as the perfect acting and the Southern U.S. accents. This movie is arguably one of the best dramas ever made, that tels us how important it is to have friends that support just Hoke did for Daisy during their 25 year relationship.
