“Green Book” depicts the curves of two men’s hearts and overlaps it with “Lawrence of Arabia”

A collection of spectacularly accurate episodes



The reason why ``Green Book'' captures the hearts of viewers, just like those past works, or even more than that, is because the series of episodes in which the bond between the two is nurtured is so precise.


The title ``Green Book'' refers to a guidebook for black people traveling through the American South from the 1930s to the 1960s. It listed hotels where black people could stay, restaurants they could enter, gas stations, etc. On the other hand, most of the places were "off-limits". As a famous pianist, the doctor is invited to a hotel to perform a concert, but there are times when he is unable to use the hotel's restaurant or even the restroom. Each time, Tony, who is unreliable but has a strong sense of justice, grows angry at the unfair discrimination. The story depicts the wonderful ``arc'' of a man who was a racist. In addition to anger, Tony begins to feel sympathy for the Doctor, who has lived a lonely life.

On the other hand, the doctor is in a world different from his own, admonishing Tony for his petty crimes while traveling, teaching him the manners of a first-class hotel, and even helping Tony do certain things that Tony is not good at. I also feel the joy of educating the people I have lived with. In this way, the relationship between the two, who complement each other's strengths, gives viewers an incredibly thrilling experience in the episode where the Doctor eats fried chicken for the first time.


``Green Book'' feels like a serious work if you only write the story like this, but it is actually a comedy, and many of the episodes where the two characters complement each other are enjoyable while laughing. . That's why even though the movie has a long running time of 2 hours and 10 minutes, it never gets boring. Almost every episode has the effect of opening up new horizons by repeating the same situation over and over again, and is consistent with the "arc" of the main characters, inviting viewers on a pleasant journey.
