They couldn’t agree. They wouldn’t give in. They thought they had nothing in common. But in the years they spent together they built the friendship of a lifetime.

Morgan Freeman, Jessica Tandy and Dan Aykroyd star in Driving Miss Daisy, the joyous comedy about a headstrong Southern lady and her ever-patient chauffeur that won Academy Awards for Best Picture, Best Actress (Tandy), Adaptation Screenplay and Makeup.

Shot in and around Atlanta, the movie wins high marks for authenticity from Atlanta-born author Alfred Uhry, awarded the Pulitzer Prize for his original play as well as an Oscar for his film script. “No detail was too small to escape the attention of Bruce Beresford, our director,” Uhry said. “He once held up filming while he tracked me down to find out if Miss Daisy would eat fried chicken with her fingers.”

The care is evident, the ride is pleasure. Driving Miss Daisy motors into the memory as “an American masterpiece” (Rex Reed, At the Movies).
