Driving Miss Daisy

Driving Miss Daisy is the beginning of a beautiful friendship between an elderly Southern Jewish lady and her African-American chauffeur. 'Worth the drive from anywhere. A total delight!' The New York Daily News Set in Atlanta, Georgia—deep in Americas' south—Driving Miss Daisy takes us on a leisurely drive from 1948 to 1973. Miss Daisy is becoming a menace behind the wheel so her son Boolie ignores her protests and hires Hoke, to be her chauffeur. At first, Daisy wants nothing to do with Hoke as she strongly values her independence. Hoke's methods of gentleness and patience over the years in his ongoing tug-of-war with the temperamental Daisy, finally begins to pay off as eventually she acknowledges his wisdom. But it is only after 25 years together that they can finally admit to the depth of the trusting friendship they have shared.
