Oscar award winning Green Book. Viggo Mortensen, Mahershala Ali. Cert 12. Based on a true story. Set in 1962. America was racist like it is now. Tony Lip, prejudiced, a racist. See what his son's book says. You may have seen Black Kkklansman, The Butler, Detroit, The Bucket List. You might enjoy the soundtrack. Tony has been working as a club bouncer. He is hired by Dr Don Shirley, a famous musician. They go on a road trip together. A good cast of actors. There was controversy surrounding this film. Two opposing personalities. They apparently formed a bond. Is this some kind of bromance. It was ridiculous the way these whites perceived people of colour. It is a shame that these morons still exist. There is some humour and drama. I don't like aspects of certain characters. I may look at the background story and the reviews. There was a disturbance at the door. Tony starred in The Sopranos. The dialogue between the two is entertaining. Good cinematography, costume, acting from all the cast.
Worth taking a look.
