A spasso con Daisy

Although not being an American we here in Europe also know about racism and the crises between black and white people in the US and maybe especially in the southern part of the country. However I found this film immencely beautiful showing the growing affection between two people (Morgan Freeman and Jessica Tandy) coming from such different cultures.

It was so great to watch that it truly is possible for two so different people to bond in such a strong and loving/respectful way as we witness in this film.

Of course it's a true Hollywood-type of film but anyhow it really got my personal respect and the way the story developed was also quite remarkable. From the beginning where Jessica Tandy will not accept a black driver till years and years after where they really become close to one another although still knowing their particular place in the household.

It is a beautiful film in that way that it really shows us that it is possible that we all, if we make an effort, can learn to live side by side without hatred. And then the then old (now no longer among us) Jessica Tandy plays her role of her lifetime with such a dignity that only a truly talented actress can do. An actress of the "old school"..

Absolutely worthwhile watching although many people may find it boring (since it's not an action film) but it has a story to tell and that indeed makes it a good film.
