Join us at Saturday Cinema for snacks and a show of Driving Miss Daisy, a heart-warming story of friendship, written by Pulitzer Prize winner Alfred Uhry, acclaimed by critics and winner of four Academy Awards, including Best Picture.

When 72 year-old Daisy Werthan (Jessica Tandy in an Academy Award winning performance) crashes her car, it’s cause for her son Boolie (Dan Aykroyd, Ghostbusters) to step in and arrange for a chauffeur. Mild-mannered Hoke (Morgan Freeman, The Shawshank Redemption) is the man for the job. But yearning for her independence, resentment gets in the way of their professional relationship as Daisy stubbornly clings to the past. However, Hoke is a man of gentle means and gentler persuasion and endears himself to ‘Miss’ Daisy, forging a remarkable 25 year friendship, a friendship destined to survive the changing social landscape deep in the American South.

This film is also available to watch from your home with your library card on Kanopy.

Saturday Cinema is held on the 1st Saturday of each month at Narromine Library.
