The Greenbook is Excellent

Rating: 10/10 (19 January 2019)

First, for those reviewers who can't get the Title of the movie. The title is a guide book given to Tony called the Guide to Negro Motorists in the South. He was given the book right before they left NYC. The movie is perfect in every way. Definitely not a Driving Miss Daisy movie. Just a really good movie that touches on many "untouchable" topics and situations and how two very different people handle those situations. The racism in the South is very real. The racism in this country right now is very real. The high point of the movie was the argument between the two men regarding who was blacker. Many middle class white people feel this about affluent black people who have more materialstic things than they do. Money. And integrity. It is a very class and race set of circumstances in which one finds oneself; a state of affairs. But many black people feel they are in a situation where it can't change because of their skin color. It can. We are all people; no matter our ethnicity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs etc. This movie really brought that home for me. And it didn't preach or show all the uglies. Just enjoy the acting and movie script. Excellent. This movie should sweep the Oscars.
