Movie Review: Driving for Miss Daisy

Judging from the title and the beginning, it feels like a light-hearted sketch, but it always feels a little incongruous. It was only when I saw the middle part that I realized that the whole story actually coincided with the black civil rights movement in the United States. However, the director did not make much fuss about this issue, but only showed the harmonious coexistence between different races through the nearly 20 years of mutual support between an ordinary Jewish old man and a black driver. It looks really warm.

An engaging movie. The old lady is really temperamental, and Morgan is even more lovable. Hans Zimmer's playful soundtrack is even better.
