Green Book: Story of Don Shirley, A black classical and jazz pianist on a tour of the Deep South in 1960's America withTony Lip, Who was employed to drive him on tour, Lip was a bouncer in New York and a tough guy and the film shows both men trying to get along with each other and with the backdrop of racism it is a really interesting story. If the scenes are realistic then to be Black, in the South, in the 60's was not easy. Shirley played these concerts to the people who were biggoted and he couldn't even eat or stay in the same places as the people who came to see him play because he was black! A very good film and a Oscar winner that is actually worth watching. 8/10
