Inspired by a true friendship.

In the fall of 1962, Tony Lip, a tough Italian American from the Bronx, is looking for work while the Copacabana remains closed for renovations. He goes to an interview for an unusual job. Don Shirley, an African American pianist, needs a driver and bodyguard for an eight-week concert tour through the Midwest and the South. The job forces Tony to leave his neighborhood and venture into a territory and an era marked by racism, where his role and the pianist's clash from the very start. Directed by Peter Farrelly, the film stars Viggo Mortensen and Mahershala Ali.

Trivia about Green Book

Steven Spielberg reportedly watched the movie five times in two weeks and called it their favorite buddy movie since Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.

The film's composer, Kris Bowers, taught Mahershala Ali the basics of piano and stood in for him in the close-ups of hands playing.

Farrelly asked Robert Plant for advice on choosing songs that are little known to today's audiences, and Plant kept showing him tracks from the fifties and sixties via YouTube.

In China, the film opened with $17.3 million, a figure well above expectations, and became the second highest-grossing Best Picture winner in the country, behind Titanic.

The soundtrack was broadcast about 10,000 times a day during January 2019, according to Milan Records, which distributed it in digital and physical formats.

On a budget of $23 million, "Green Book" grossed roughly $321 million worldwide, nearly fourteen times its production cost.

The film won the Audience Award at the Toronto International Film Festival in 2018, an honor that La La Land also received in 2016 and 12 Years a Slave received in 2013.

The portrayal of Don Shirley sparked documented controversy: relatives of the musician claimed the film exaggerated his estrangement from the African American family and his cultural roots.

The world is full of lonely people afraid to make the first move.
You never win with violence, Tony. You only win when you maintain your dignity.
You know, my father used to say, whatever you do, do it 100%. When you work, work. When you laugh, laugh. When you eat, eat like it's your last meal.
[Eating KFC in Kentucky] Mmm. I think this is the best Kentucky Fried Chicken I ever had. But I guess it's fresher down here, right?
It's like what your friend the President said, "Ask not... Your country, what you could do for it. Ask what you do for yourself." Y'know?
