Not well aged

 

Driving Miss Daisy (1989)


Directed by Bruce Beresford this film based on the play of the same name stars Jessica Tandy, Morgan Freeman and Dan Akyrod. An old Jewish woman is no longer safe to drive so her son hires her a black chauffeur.


To modern eyes this is a fairly patronising look at race relations. At the time this film one all the awards but it has not aged at all well in my opinion. Even the Hans Zimmer soundtrack comes off as dated.


2/5
