An elderly Jewish widow living in Atlanta can no longer drive. Her son insists she allow him to hire a driver, which in the 1950s meant a black man. She resists any change in her life but, Hoke, the driver is hired by her son. She refuses to allow him to drive her anywhere at first, but Hoke slowly wins her over with his native good graces. The movie is directly taken from a stage play and does show it. It covers over twenty years of the pair's life together as they slowly build a relationship that transcends their differences. |

| In an era of mega blockbusters, and sci-fi extravaganzas, this little drama is like water in the desert. The film's plot is very simple: a wealthy Jewish woman and ex-teacher (Jessica Tandy) wrecks her car (for the umpteen time), and his son (Dan Akroyd) decides that it is time for her to have a chauffeur. Unfortunately for the driver (Morgan Freeman), his boss is a high-strung woman, who refuses to give up her independence, making his job more difficult than what it needs to be. Moving, delicate and genteel exploration of bitter rivalry that blossoms into genuine friendship. Race relations is a big part of the story, but one could argue that the movie is mostly about how one soul can impact another. Tandy won the Oscar and she is wonderful, and Freeman is her match; their great chemistry is the key to the film's appeal. It's a sweet, heartwarming film, more complex than what it appears to be. A favorite of mine, and a winner all the way! |
