Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Alfred Uhry, Driving Miss Daisy affectionately covers the 25-year relationship between a wealthy, strong-willed Southern matron (Jessica Tandy) and her equally indomitable Black chauffeur, Hoke (Morgan Freeman). Both employer and employee are outsiders, Hoke because of the color of his skin, Miss Daisy because she is Jewish in a WASP-dominated society. At the same time, Hoke cannot fathom Miss Daisy's cloistered inability to grasp the social changes that are sweeping the South in the 1960s. Nor can Miss Daisy understand why Hoke's "people" are so indignant. It is only when Hoke is retired and Miss Daisy is confined to a home for the elderly that the two fully realize that they've been friends and kindred spirits all along. The supporting cast includes Esther Rolle as Miss Daisy's housekeeper and Dan Aykroyd as Miss Daisy's son, Boolie (reportedly, playwright Uhry based the character upon himself). Driving Miss Daisy won Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actress (Jessica Tandy), Best Screenplay (Uhry), and Best Makeup (Manlio Rochetti). ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Review For Driving Miss Daisy

Alfred Uhry's adaptation of his Pulitzer-prizewinning play aspires more to complex observation of human behavior than to simple moralism about it. Precisely because it has its priorities straight, it succeeds superbly on both levels.
Richard Schickel-TIME Magazine

Bruce Beresford's sensitive direction complements Alfred Uhry's skillful adapation of his Pulitzer Prize-winning play.
Joseph McBride-Variety

The movie also has something legitimate and instructive to say about the subtlety and intricacy of everyday race relations in the south during the period covered (roughly 1948 to '73).
Jonathan Rosenbaum-Chicago Reader

Far too cosy to serve as an effective social or political metaphor; better to regard it as a solid ensemble piece.
-Time Out

There is an exhilarating, singularly theatrical lightness of touch that is often lost when these settings are made manifest in a movie.
Vincent Canby-New York Times

This is Tandy's finest two hours onscreen in a film career that goes back to 1932.
Peter Travers-Rolling Stone

The heart-warming story of how a bitter old Jewess learns to not be such a bitch to a patient Negro driver.
Walter Chaw-Film Freak Central

An exquisitely acted slice of cinematic comfort food, Driving Miss Daisy marked the coda of one great acting career and the rise of another.
Christopher Lloyd-Sarasota Herald-Tribune

Touching tale of an unlikely friendship.
Maria Llull-Common Sense Media

It's a bland but decent film that I liked without loving it.
Dennis Schwartz-Ozus' World Movie Reviews

It gets to its hugely emotional destination without ever having to put the foot down; a poignant and provocative road movie.
Philip Thomas-Empire Magazine

Ultimately this is an intelligent feel-good movie that had Oscar material stamped all over the screenplay, but lacks the bite or insight that could have turned it into something truly special.
-Film4

Chief among the film's rewards are the extraordinary performances of its trio of stars, Freeman, Tandy, and Aykroyd.
-TV Guide's Movie Guide

Tandy and Freeman are terrific in this beautiful film about the commonalities between people who seem so different.
Wesley Lovell-Cinema Sight

The modest storytelling and likable performances must have impressed the Oscar voters as the movie won the Best Picture Oscar and Best Actress for Jessica Tandy, thus establishing her as screen star at old age.
Emanuel Levy-EmanuelLevy.Com

Morgan Freeman elevates the source material as always.
Cole Smithey-ColeSmithey.com

One of Oscar's Biggest Jokes
John Esther-Pasadena Weekly

One of today's best movies
Clint Morris-Moviehole

A toothless message movie, timidly espousing homogenized morals and terrified of offending anyone.
Rob Vaux-Flipside Movie Emporium

Strikes the right chords in both drama and comedy, but given the setting and subject matter, doesn't really have anything important or original to say.
Derek Smith-Apollo Guide

A warm and honest film, well-written and directed with a lot of style and flair.
