That was an excellent one.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Driving Miss DaisyThe writer; Alfred Uhry, has spent a lot on the bonding of the lead characters which is clearly visible and thoroughly moving and entertaining, that clearly stands alone and becomes the highlight of this subtle dramatic feature. Bruce Bereford is decent on executing the scene and offering the appropriate tone to it but a better editing and cinematography would have changed the whole course. Morgan Freeman holds on to his part tightly along with Jessica Tandy who overpowers Morgan completely with her genuinely moving performance. Driving Miss Daisy is a slow pill that is effective to its core but it sure tests one's patience along with it which in the end is worth the drama.

Driving Miss Daisy (1989) is a very sweet film about extended friendship. It stars Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy. You may recognize Jessica Tandy from the birds (1963) or fried green tomatoes (1991). She's really a great actress and really deserved that academy award for this movie. And of course pretty much everyone knows who Morgan Freeman is from plenty of movies he's been in up until this year. Both of them do wonderfully in this movie. And they both have great chemistry together, at first they really didn't get along at all but eventually they become life long best friends and it's beautifully portrayed. The script is great from start to finish, it really gives great detail into every character. Depth and meaning certainly isn't something this movie is void of. And it even has some humor in parts, especially when Morgan Freeman first comes to work for Jessica Tandy. She really is a very stubborn hard headed woman who doesn't want to admit that she can't do some things anymore, just won't let go of her pride. This really is a classic in my opinion. 10/10 for Driving Miss Daisy! If you haven't already then go and see this film.

Did Morgan Freeman find an elixir of life? He is playing an old man in this movie and that was 26 years ago (from the time of this review)! Anyway, Driving Miss Daisy is a film centering on the relationship between an aging Jewish lady, played by Jessica Tandy, and her black driver, played by Morgan Freeman, appointed to her against her will when she can no longer drive herself.The movie is supposed to cover 25 years and the movie tries to be subtle about its time progression. It uses ways like the change of cars and makeup, and sometimes also spells out the year on a particular item, like a trophy. While this is an intelligent and praiseworthy attempt, it ultimately fails because Morgan Freeman does not look any older as the movie progresses and Jessica only looks older towards the 2nd half. You have to pay attention to the little things know where you are.That is just a minor complaint but it brings us to a larger one: not much is going on in this movie in the 25 years it supposedly takes. Now, before the millions of you come yelling at me that this is not some action movie, I am well aware of that.Obviously, this movie is about the relationship between the two main characters, so the story is not as important, but there is a strange stagnation in both the relationship and the story surrounding it. In fact, Freeman's character actually says so out loud towards the end of the film. The chauffeur always stays outside of anywhere they drive to and these two people do not experience much together. They end at friendlier terms than the ones at which they started, but that is about it.Yes, it is commendable that the movie did not go the romantic way. It could have been easy for it to go the cheap way and show the two main characters fall obviously in love and it is good that the movie avoids this, as well as puts mental barriers in the path of their relationship, but again, in supposedly 25 years very little change shows in the behavior between these two or their situation (apart from getting weaker from age). The movie really is about driving Miss Daisy and is perhaps a little too subtle for its own good.Now, having said that, Morgan Freeman is awesome as the old southern black man. The acting and his accent are fun and his ability to portray this character with realism is praiseworthy. Jessica Tandy is also quite a brilliant actress considering how well she portrayed aging. The difference between her manner at the beginning of the movie and at the end is quite staggering. Their relationship together is interesting and has believability.The is realism overall is high. I do not know the exact nature of conversations and relationships from the period covered, but besides having some anti-racist undertones in its story (probably to try and offset the potential offense of the main premise), the movie is surprisingly raw when it comes to showing the people and their feelings. Freeman's character is polite but he still has his dignity and his own opinions. Tandy's character, although wants to be seen as progressive, is still an old lady with her own special ways.Driving Miss Daisy is a good well-acted film that can be taken seriously and leaves you with a good feeling, but one could desire that a little bit more happens with the relationships and events. At this point I cannot find a reason to watch this movie a second time.

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!
