I really liked Jessica Tandy's performance in this film! She truly deserved that Best Actress Oscar! Jessica Tandy was also in Alfred Hitchcock's THE BIRDS (1963)! DRIVING MISS DAISY is currently and still is the last PG-rated Best Picture Oscar winner! All other Oscar winning Best Pictures since then have been rated PG-13 or R.
