Green Book
This movie tells the story of “Tony Lip” Vallelonga, who becomes unlikely friends with an African American classical pianist in the South during the 1960s. The movie is considered to be accurate by many since Vallelonga’s son, Nick is one of the screenwriters. The movie won three Oscars for Best Picture, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actor.
