Hoke Colburn sits in the front seat with his hands on the steering wheel, but the driver's seat is behind him. That's where Miss Daisy sits. She doesn't want a chauffeur and she won't give in. And neither will Hoke.

Driving Miss Daisy, the Best Picture Academy Award winner of 1989, is also the best, most joyful, heartfelt comedy in a long time. Based on Alfred Uhruy's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, it tells the story of genteel but strong-willed Southern matron Daisy Werthan (Jessica Tandy) and her patient but equally determined chauffeur Hoke (Morgan Freeman). For two people so different, they have a lot in common. And the bumpy road they travel ultimately leads to the friendship of a lifetime.
