The Best Coen Brothers Film Yet
Just seen this film at an NFT preview, and I was blown away by it. It is very funny, gorgeous to look at, has a stunning soundtrack and absolutely impeccable comedy performances. Sharing a similar meandering storyline with the Big Lebowski, it succeed where that film fails by still having a coherent storyline running through and a satisfying resolution. As I’ve come to expect from the Coens, the visuals are striking but they’ve never been this beautiful before, and at no time – unlike – in previous films, do they seem merely to be there as an exercise in cleverness. But what makes this film is the excellent comic performances from even the smaller roles (several of whom are Coen regulars) – Even though the characters, as in many coen films, are (slightly irregular) stereotypes the performances give even the shallow characters a depth and makes the scenes even more funny. Oh, and the soundtrack ain’t too bad either.

“Driving Miss Daisy” Plot Summary
An old Jewish woman and her African-American chauffeur in the American South have a relationship that grows and improves over the years. add synopsis
A mix of drama and comedy with great acting
A mix of drama and comedy with great acting is the best way to sum up the movie. It contained the sassy attitude of Miss Daisy (Tandy)with the happy spirit of her driver Hoke (Freeman). The plot line is good and it’s not one of those really depressing dramas – its actually funny in many places. All actors in this movie were great, especially Jessica Tandy and Morgan Freeman. Tandy won best actress for her acting, and I think Freeman should have one best actor award. Watch it!
