Description:
Affluent and decidedly independent Jewish widow Miss Daisy begrudgingly agrees to hire a driver after reversing her brand-new car into the neighbour’s azalea bush.
At her son Boolie’s insistence Black Chauffeur Hoke, himself a widower, is employed. Warned of Daisy’s stubborn nature Hoke is undeterred, greeting bigotry with humour and absurdity with self-assured defiance.
Opening in America’s deep South 1948, it is amidst a climate of great social upheaval that an unlikely friendship is forged. A friendship that will span some 25 years and challenge the limits of prejudice and forbearance.
Jessica Tandy and
Morgan Freeman revel in their roles skilfully evoking the depth and complexity of their characters as well as the impact of social/historical conditioning on human relations. Earnest and heartfelt Driving Miss Daisy is an enduring classic well worth its place in any ones collection.
