Driving Miss Daisy review
Daniel Corleone - wrote on 01/31/12
Daisy Werthan (Jessica Tandy) lives alone with a housemaid named Idella (Esther Rolle). Boolie (Dan Aykroyd) advices her to get a chauffeur since no insurance company will cover her. Ms. Daisy was hesitant at first, but she becomes accustomed to the amiable personality of Hoke Colburn (Morgan Freeman). Only observation this reviewer had were the picture’s quality, a more interesting plot and picture quality since the whole movie felt like a dream. The picture had the right balance of humor and drama. Screenplay was exceptional and direction was wonderful. Tandy and Freeman have made the film watchable since their onscreen chemistry was sensational. It had one of the most touching endings onscreen. Driving Miss Daisy is a good drama where topics on death, racism, trust, friendship and aging were well displayed.
