How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A road movie about unlikely friendship blooming between two men navigating the segregated South, mixing moments of humor and warmth with the weight of systemic racism. It's a film that believes in human connection as a corrective force, even as it confronts America's ugliest prejudices.

really boring and plain, this film in of itself has allot of weird racial implications. the film is about a white man becoming a driver for a black man.
i don't think either of two are good characters because why am i suppose to care about these two?
because the plot demands me too but it doesn't work as the script is really lazy aswell as the directing. i won't go further on about the films weird racial things because alot of other people can explain that better and already have but even if you remove that, its a plain burger with no meat inbetween the buns.
i don't get how this is rated so high because this film and the things in it are nothing special.
