Review of Green Book (2018) by Netflic — 26 Dec 2018
Based on real events and real people, this film is about relationship between a famous black pianist Don Shirley and his driver Tony, a New York bouncer of Italian origin.
The name 'Green Book' refers to a hotel travel guide in the Deep South where black people were allowed to stay in 1960th. Obviously, racism (especially in the South) is one of the main themes of the movie.
It's also about family, dignity, courage, self-identification, and many other things, foremost about an earning to connect, to feel close. It is a serious drama peppered with funny episodes.
Great performances from both leads. Believable script, detailed nuances.
Overall, the movie is quite enjoyable to watch.
