Interesting Questions, Facts, and Information
Freeman, Morgan
Alright. Let's start easy. Who was the title character and Freeman's costar in 'Driving Miss Daisy'? | Morgan Freeman Costars
|
Jessica Tandy. Tandy won an Oscar for her work in this role, and the movie won Best Picture for 1990.
Jeff Bridges. Whitmore played Brooks Hatlen, Robbins was Andy Dufresne, and Bellows was Tommy Williams. Jeff Bridges and Morgan Freeman have yet to do a movie together (as of Oct 2001).
What movie put Morgan Freeman on a set with Dougray Scott, Leelee Sobieski, Jon Favreau, and Laura Innes? | Morgan Freeman Costars
|
Deep Impact. Scott is well known for his turn as Drew Barrymore's princely love interest in 'Ever After', as well as his villainous role in 'M:I-2'. Sobieski also starred with Barrymore, but this time in 'Never Been Kissed', and had more prominent roles in 'Here on Earth' and 'The Glass House'. Favreau made a name for himself after writing and costarring in 'Swingers'. Innes is perhaps best known as Dr. Kerry Weaver from TV's 'ER'.
Keanu Reeves. This action movie also starred Rachel Weisz as one of the team of scientists.
Monica Potter. This movie marks the only instance (through Oct 2001) that Freeman has reprised a role, this as detective Alex Cross.
Gene Hackman. Dempsey will long be recognizable as the star to that horrible 80s movie that you love to hate, 'Loverboy'. Sutherland and Spacey are hardly strangers, and had fairly prominent roles in this film.
Kevin Pollack. This movie was pretty much a major flop, and garnered 5 Razzie Award nominations for being terrible in all sorts of ways.
Freeman was the villain in 'Hard Rain', and Christian Slater was the hero. Who was Slater's love interest? | Morgan Freeman Costars
|
Minnie Driver. Driver works at the church in town and Slater saves her life a few times. How romantic.
Kevin Spacey. Freeman and Brad Pitt play the detectives on Spacey's trail. This is one of the greatest suspense films around. David Fincher (also directed 'Fight Club') is a genius.
Million Dollar Baby. Morgan Freeman was nominated three times for Oscars (1988: 'Street Smart', 1990: 'Driving Miss Daisy' and 1995: 'Shawshank Redemption') before finally winning in 2005 for 'Million Dollar Baby'. In that film, he played a retired boxer, who helped bring a young woman with boxing dreams into the gym of his former boxing trainer.
Joe Clark. Morgan Freeman's rendition of Principal 'Crazy' Joe Clark was simply marvelous. Joe Clark was a principal who helped revive a decaying school called Eastside High in Paterson, New Jersey.
Unforgiven. Morgan Freeman first collaborated with Clint Eastwood in the 1992 film 'Unforgiven'. The two of them again teamed up for the 2004 film 'Million Dollar Baby'. Both won Oscars for the latter film, while only Eastwood won an Oscar for the former film.
Glory. 'Glory' is the story of a black regiment called up to serve on the Union side of the U.S. Civil War. Also appearing in the film: Cary Elwes, Andre Braugher and Jihmi Kennedy.
This may well be Morgan Freeman's greatest performance.
