Driving for Miss Daisy 7.24

Georgia in the forties, old lady Daisy's car was driven to a neighbor's house by herself and broke down.
His son, a Jewish factory, happened to meet Hawke, an old driver who drove for the judge's best friend. He was optimistic and humorous. Polly hired Hawke to drive his mother. At first, Daisy didn't like hiring Hawke. Hawke taught him to write with a book. After the death of the maid Adela, Hawke sometimes took care of Daisy.
In 1966, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered a speech on racial equality. So far, Hawke has driven Mrs. Daisy for 15 years. Daisy suffered from Alzheimer's disease and was admitted to a nursing home.

In 2016, I saw the Taiwan version of the pick-up love, it should be adapted from this film

Driving Miss Daisy quotes

  • [Hoke and Boolie are walking thru Daisy's vacated home discussing how Hoke and Daisy have been since Daisy had to be put in the nursing home]

    Boolie Werthan: I suppose you don't get out to see her very much.

    Hoke Colburn: No, sir... it's hard not drivin'. Every now and then I takes a taxi cab, but don't too many taxis go out yonder.

    Boolie Werthan: I'm sure she appreciates it.

    Hoke Colburn: Yes, sir.

    [pauses]

    Hoke Colburn: Some days, she better than others... but then, who ain't?

    [Hoke and Boolie both laugh]

  • [Hoke and Boolie are at the nursing home visiting Daisy. Daisy appears unwilling to speak much]

    Boolie Werthan: Hoke, I thought of you the other day on the expressway. I saw an Avondale Milk truck. Monster of a thing, must have had about sixteen wheels.

    Hoke Colburn: You don't say!

    Boolie Werthan: I was wondering how you'd like drivin' that thing around!

    Daisy Werthan: [to Boolie] Hoke came to see me, not you!

    Hoke Colburn: Look like one o' her good days!

    Daisy Werthan: Boolie, go charm the nurses!

    Boolie Werthan: [smiling] She wants you all to herself.
