The funny, touching and totally irresistible story of a working relationship that became a 25-year friendship.
戴茜（杰西卡·坦尼Jessica Tandy 饰）小时候在贫民地方长大，丈夫生意的崛起才让他们家过上富足日子，所以戴茜非常节俭。现在她年时已高，不能自己开车了，儿子为她请来黑人司机霍克（摩根·弗里曼 Morgan Freeman饰），但是戴茜却十分不喜欢。她起初逃避出行，因为不想让霍克当上司机，后来她才觉得，儿子付了钱却不用他干活，似乎太不划算，于是终于给了霍克第一次为自己开车的机会。霍克是一个非常善良淳朴的男人，他知道自己不被接受，并没有把不快放在心里。相反地，他处处关心戴茜的生活，也慢慢了解戴茜坚守原则的执著性格。戴茜对霍克的排斥开始慢慢消融，直至几年间她终于发现，霍克是一个很值得信赖的朋友。于是，戴茜教会不识字的霍克传授认字，霍克也成为了戴茜晚年最贴心的老友记。
"Driving Miss Daisy," a poignant cinematic gem released in 1989 by The Zanuck Company, delicately weaves the tale of an unlikely friendship that blossoms against the backdrop of the American South's turbulent racial landscape. Directed by Bruce Beresford, the film stars Jessica Tandy as Daisy Werthan, a stubborn and aging Jewish widow, and Morgan Freeman as Hoke Colburn, the African American chauffeur hired to drive her around after she crashes her car. Their journey, spanning over two decades, transcends societal norms and personal prejudices, offering audiences a heartwarming narrative about the power of human connection. Set in Atlanta from the late 1940s to the early 1960s, "Driving Miss Daisy" captures the essence of a changing America through the intimate lens of Daisy and Hoke's evolving relationship. The film masterfully juxtaposes their personal growth against significant historical events, such as the civil rights movement, without ever losing focus on the core of their story. The screenplay, adapted by Alfred Uhry from his own Pulitzer Prize-winning play, is both subtle and profound, allowing the characters' gradual transformation to unfold naturally and authentically. Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman deliver performances that are nothing short of mesmerizing, earning them both Academy Awards for their roles. Tandy's portrayal of Daisy is a masterclass in subtlety, capturing the character's gradual softening and vulnerability with grace and nuance. Freeman, on the other hand, imbues Hoke with a quiet dignity and unwavering patience, making his character the emotional anchor of the film. Their chemistry is palpable, creating a believable and deeply moving portrayal of friendship that transcends race and age. "Driving Miss Daisy" is more than just a film; it is a testament to the enduring power of empathy and understanding. It reminds us that even in a world rife with division and prejudice, genuine human connections can flourish, bringing light to the darkest of times. The Zanuck Company's production stands as a timeless piece of cinema, celebrated not only for its compelling storytelling and stellar performances but also for its poignant message of hope and reconciliation.
