The Green Book: A Fantastic Movie Experience
The Green Book is a fantastic movie that depicts an African American gentleman who was a fantastic piano player. Who employed a white man, but they lived in New York, so it wasn't abnormal up there, but he had to travel down south for his concerts or his events.
The Unusual Dynamic.
And that was super abnormal for the South to have an African American man employing a white person. So they experienced a lot of racism and judgment on their tour, but they also had a lot of support because of how good the guy wasn't playing piano, they called him a doctor when he wasn't a doctor.

But he was such a savant at playing piano that people were so amazed by his piano playing that he got to play in areas where African Americans wouldn't dare even go, but he still had to stay in really crappy motels.
What Made the Movie Special
The main part of the story/movie that I enjoy is the connection between the two characters. No matter what, he always protected him no matter what. And how different societal norms are from northern states to Southern States, because the movie took place in 1962, and we're still battling stuff like that.
And the fact it was based off a true story makes it even more incredible the movie was very well written to and the dialogue in the movie was incredible one thing I did learn in the movie was that how much different the North in the South were in terms of segregation I knew it before but I didn't know that it was as much as I expected because it was just really incredible how the different people interacted with one another.
Two Different Worlds
It was truly incredible to see the difference between the two societies, and it was almost like being in two different countries. Even now, it was still the United States of America. It just amazed me, the movie was just so well written, well directed, great acting, it was wonderful all over, and they won three Academy Awards was just amazing.
And I'm really glad we got to watch it as a class, it was just so awesome.
A Talented Performer Who Overcame
She was so talented that even though he was African American, he still was able to perform in those places, and he still went through segregation and he still went through racism, but he didn't let that face him. He still played the piano, and he still made things work no matter what. more green book info
It was truly incredible how they were able to write that in and how historically accurate it was based on the true story. It was a wonderful movie and I'm happy I got to see it I've been meaning to see it for a while now it came out in 2018 and I never got an opportunity to watch it and I'm glad I got to watch it now the green book was an amazing movie and I hope to watch more movies like that in the future.
