Driving Miss Daisy

I saw Driving Miss Daisy last night. The best movie I have seen in a long time. Very very good. Its about a very set-in-her-ways southern woman and the black man, Hoke, her son hires to be the chauffer for the aging woman. The movie portrays the conflict as the woman comes to accept Hoke as part of her life and comes to depend on him for his services, but more importantly, his frienship.

it is a very thought-provoking movie. i enjoyed it. really ought to watch it again, though, since i'm thinking about these racism issues again these days. but yeah, a great classic.

Hey Jon. Jo here. I have checked MSN IM frequently lately (realizing the time difference), but you haven't been on - or anybody else for that matter.

have you seen the movie "Glory", also with Morgan Freeman? i just watched it last night, for the second time. (last time was about 4 years ago) it is about the Masssachusetts 54th Regiment, one of the first freed-blacks regiment. a really moving story, and pretty true historically.
