Touching, funny and oh so good. Every performer is absolutely wonderful. I hadn't seen this in years, but I love it more now.

I hated this movie. I hated the era-inappropriate drivel on the soundtrack (that paltry electronica wasn't music!) and I resent -- to this day -- the sheer, attitudinizing smugness of it all. I hated the conspiratorial presumption of…

Directed by Bruce Beresford in 1989 based on Alfred Uhry's play of the same name, this American dramedy depicts the unlikely bond between an elderly woman and her black chauffer over a twenty-five-year period. Superb are the performances…

Movie felt rather tepid compared to recent movies tacking the subject, such as The Green Book. It does have some nice heartwarming moments and shows a little bit of kindness and thoughtfulness and a cheerful attitude can go along way to…

This is a relatively old film about the bonding between a master and a servant, ageing, and human compassion. It is very well done and well acted. However, it now looks a little inferior compared to a newer, slightly different film on…

Brilliantly acted feelgood Civil Rights era period piece. Never gets old and never fails to bring a smile to my face. Just a splendid piece of cinema. Freeman and Tandy shine like the sun.

There are so many aspects of this film which I could go on and on about. It is a wonderful film of which any person will get a fulfilling movie watching experience out of. Morgan Freeman does a great job in this as always. I highly…
