Daisy, an old Jewish lady, was almost eighty and still lived a very frugal life by herself. The boss's son found an old black driver for her to drive for her. Although she was not mean to him, she was very sincere. One day, the old driver opened another can of canned fish because he couldn't bite the meat for dinner. Early the next morning, the old lady found out and called her son right away. The old driver just came to work and brought the cans he bought to explain the whole story. Since then, the old lady has admired the old driver. Miss Daisy's heart is not bad, and she is very sad that the old black maid died before her; she also went to the party where Martin Luther was speaking. But probably because of age, it's really not easy to get along with her. The kind old driver is not only sincere, but also very humorous, not to please, but to deal with it subtly. Daisy is in a nursing home because of Alzheimer's, and the old driver often takes a taxi to visit her; and the old lady cares whether her son pays him. Although the film was shot many years after President Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act, it is not easy to praise a black man in such a positive way. The film also puts forward the idea that the ideal relationship between the host and the park should be a friendship, even if Park is black, which is even more valuable.
