Default Favorite Morgan Freeman movie?

Along Came a Spider - Rotten Tomatoes

Been watching this 2001 film and thinking of what else I have seen Morgan Freeman in over the years. Do recall that there were very long lines with people getting turned away for the movie Bucket List when they showed it at the Rialto here in the Villages. I had a to wait a few weeks while the crowds dwindled.

Anything that Mr. Freeman is in, I'm watching. I don't know who he likes, who he supports, or what he's done good or bad. He entertains me and makes one hell of a good president in some movies he's played in. Seem's to be a good egg.

Shawshank was the first time I remember seeing him. Three thumbs up!

Good pick Tal, it's about time. LOL

I do not find the actor's or actresses tastes in whatever relevant to how well they perform in a movie, play, concert or whatever.

It would make a difference with the screenwriter, playwright, writer, etc., though.

Shawshank Redemption and Bruce Almighty. Driving Miss Daisy floats between 1st and 2nd, I can't ever make up my mind if it's my favorite or not.

He was in Outbreak which was filmed in Northern California. Not sure if the Outbreak cast and crew stayed at the Red Lion Inn which was a few hundred feet out our back door just across a golf course green in Rohnert Park, CA. My parents lived there from 1986-1996.

There would often be movie production trailers in the parking lot at the Red Lion Inn. I never ran into anyone while walking the dog who was a known movie star. And if I did run into someone we usually talked about poop. This was about all the duck poop around the greens.

I did like Morgan Freeman's acting in Outbreak.

Default The Magic of Belle Uslr

The Magic of Belle Isle is a Morgan Freeman gem. I've watched it multiple times.

Might be easier asking for the reverse! They were all good.

Monica Potter is a very good actress. I remember her in Patch Adams Patch Adams - Rotten Tomatoes.

Morgan Freeman got his start in the 1970's on the children's show "The Electric Company."
I learned to sound out words by listening to his amazing voice.
He is still one of my favorite actors!
