Hawke is a talkative and funny old man. He applied for the job and came to Daisy's house and made the servant Edila laugh happily. He was also a hard-working person who couldn't rest, always thinking about what he was looking for. Otherwise, you will be suffocated to death, and take the initiative to wipe the chandeliers in the living room and tidy up the flower beds in the yard. But Miss Daisy is not so easy to get along with. She stared at him with a sullen face, and kept her from touching this and that. Even appreciating and complimenting the pictures on her wall was reprimanded for being nosy, and going out to buy things. Would rather take the tram than let Hawke drive. Miss Daisy hates people talking about her behind her back, especially when people say she's rich, because she too grew up in the ghetto of Forsyth Street. Hawke is not a person who gives up easily. He insisted on driving with Miss Daisy, and soon persuaded her. The reason was very simple. Spend money, not in vain. Miss Daisy, who has always been frugal, got into the car obediently. Along the way, the two were still entangled, as if they couldn't say a word. But from now on, even if Daisy recognized the driver, she was no longer stubborn to go out and take a taxi by herself.
After the service, Daisy found that Hawke drove the car from the back of the church to the front door of the church, opened the car door in front of everyone and waited for her, just like welcoming the Queen of Romania", which made her angry "You make me look like a fool It's the same, big fool". No wonder Daisy is most afraid of people talking about her behind her back, saying she is showing off her wealth. In fact, Daisy is deceiving herself. In a wealthy family like her, you have to show off unless you move back to the slums. Living in a shabby public rental housing and eating shit, without a driver or servant, it is difficult to live alone. Hawke is this view. He was reprimanded by Daisy as vulgar, and Hawke shook his head helplessly. This old lady can pretend and enjoy it. With the services brought by money, on the one hand, they do not want people to know and discuss.
Early one morning, Daisy hurried to find her son Polly. She found an open can of salmon in the warehouse, and there was just a can of salmon that was exactly the same on the shelf in her pantry, so she identified it as Hawke. Steal from the storeroom. It turns out that Daisy has been keeping Hawke like a thief. Silver cutlery, linen napkins, and pantry items are secretly counted, even if it's a three-can sale for a dollar. Son Polly could only boast helplessly, "Mom, you are too shrewd". It seems that the two generations of the American family have the same generation gap and communication barriers as the Chinese, and even the conflicts and disputes that arise are the same. Hawke came to work and took out a can of salmon he just bought as soon as he entered the door. It turned out to be a misunderstanding. Fortunately, he didn't confront him in person, otherwise it would be Daisy who would be embarrassed and embarrassed. But through this incident, the ice between Daisy and Hawke began to melt, and the estrangement began to disappear.
After tidying up the graveyard of her late husband Mr. Wilton, Daisy realized that Hawke, who had been busy reading a newspaper at her house all day long, was blind and could only read letters but not words. Daisy, who has been a teacher for most of her life, can't laugh or cry. She taught Hawke to know the first person's name, and Daisy regained her sense of accomplishment and smiled happily for the first time. Daisy went to her son's house to attend the Christmas party. Along the way, Daisy did not hide her disgust for her future daughter-in-law Floren. Her words were harsh and sharp, but she always won Hawke's understanding and cheerful laughter to respond. Hawke found that Daisy is also good at joking, and the two began to have a common language and understanding. Daisy gave Hawke a copy of the book "Introduction to Reading and Writing" that she used to teach when she was teaching. Looking at the faded and yellowed cover, she must have been old. Daisy also used this book when the Mayor of Hartsfield was a child. taught him.
It was a pleasant trip to drive to Mobai, Alabama to visit my brother-in-law Walter to wish him his birthday. The two of them chatted and laughed along the way. It should be said that Hawke is a very easy-going, easy-going person. Willful and mean words can be tolerated by Xiaona, which is much stronger than Daisy's son Wilton. Although Wilton is accommodating to his mother on the surface, his words are full of dissatisfaction and helplessness. Ke set off, listening to him say "goodbye, good luck, and thank God" in a long voice, he knew that at this time he seemed to have a big thought, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
On the way, Daisy and Hawke stopped by the roadside for a rest. The beautiful scenery along the way brought back Daisy's fond memories of the first time she went to Mobai to attend Walter's wedding when she was a child. The two policemen arrived unexpectedly and asked Hawke, "What are you doing next to the car?" After checking the documents and driver's license, they watched them leave, and the two policemen were still muttering, "An old black guy and an old Jewish woman. It's sad to be in the same car." Racism in America is deeply rooted.
The police's investigation ruined the good interest of the two, and they went the wrong way again. It was dark before the worship. Daisy overbearingly refused to allow Hawke to park easily, and Hawke also lost his patience. The easy-going and funny Hawke is not illiterate, but he is a master negotiator. Mr. Wilton has learned his formidable skills. After some bargaining, Wilton sincerely agreed to Hawke's request for a salary increase. I have always heard that Westerners can't play mahjong, so it feels strange to watch four foreign old ladies playing mahjong in the movie.
The sudden death of the servant Edilla caught Daisy off guard, and her peaceful life was disrupted. Daisy was a little at a loss, but she didn't expect the diligent Hawke to fill in in time, and the two quickly stabilized their lives. Daisy was very moved by trying her best to integrate into this family, and she began to rely more and more on this black driver. Now Hawke is not only Daisy's driver, but also her close friend. The relationship between the two has changed qualitatively. Daisy, who has Alzheimer's, remembers Hawke as her good friend.
In the nursing home, Daisy said to her sons Polly and Hawke, "It was Hawke who came to see me, not you." Only driving her son Polly, Daisy asked, "Does Polly give you money back?" After receiving the affirmation of Hawke, Daisy still said "road robbery" so meanly, but without a trace of malice, only full of Warmth. Seeing Daisy's shaking hands, Hawke wanted to feed her Thanksgiving pie, Daisy was gentle and submissive, Hawke fed her the pie in mouthfuls, Daisy ate it in her mouth and was sweet in her heart, a warm picture Touched the hearts of millions of people around the world.
