Miss Daisy here is a 72-year-old lady! Her driver is the optimistic and cheerful black old Mr. Hawke. Miss Dai Qian is stubborn and stubborn. She wants to do everything by herself, not letting others interfere in her own affairs. However, once she was out, her car was driven into a ditch and almost died. In order to ensure the safety of his mother, Daisy's son hired Hawke to be her driver for him. However, the stubborn Dai Xi still insisted on going out by tram or taxi. Under Hawke's ingenious agitation, Daisy couldn't scratch Hawke and got in the car. The turmoil about canned food became a turning point in their relationship. One morning, Miss Daisy found that there was a bottle of canned fish in the kitchen and an empty canned bottle was found in the parking lot. So she decided that Hawke’s hands and feet were dirty, and she forced Hawke to be her driver for this kind of son. Or, in a sense, it proves that she is old and has lost the ability to go out independently. Her disgust and rejection psychology has been exerted to the extreme. Even when she invited her son to solve this matter, the son felt that she was too critical and left her official duties. When he came to see his mother, he found that it was such an important thing in her opinion. He also lost patience and gave her 10 dollars for a lot of canned fish. Just as the mother was surprised by his son's move, Hawke, who came to work in the morning, explained to them that he saw that the canned fish head in the kitchen was too hard to eat, and bought a new one for Daisy. At this point, Dai Qian's stubborn, strong, and defensive mentality began to relax, and she slowly accepted and even began to rely on Hawke.
People will have feelings after being together for a long time. Dai Qian, who lives in a widowed life and has always been independent, does not want such a person to always break her own life and explain from another angle that she needs the help of others and that she is losing some ability. Hawke changed this weird old lady with his sincere and optimistic personality. From the rejection at the beginning, to the deep friendship, and even a little bit of love, we can see the warm side of human nature. At the end of the film, Dai Xi readily accepts the warm scene of Hawk feeding her cake, just like old friends or old couples who have been with her for a lifetime. They have a smile on their faces that can be called sunshine, calm, harmonious, and forever frozen. The picture will not fade, because it stays in our hearts.
In addition, the era in the film is in a period when apartheid is being broken. Daisy and Hawke were sitting in the same car. Daisy never thought of anything wrong, but the policeman who checked their driver's license sneered at this combination. It can be seen that the concepts of discrimination and equality coexist in people's hearts. There are always people who have really gotten along with black people. People who know black people will think that discriminating against black people is inhumane.
