    Morgan Freeman

    http://www.wmctv.com/global/story.asp?s=8783679

    I hope he is all right. I hope to see him quite a few more films.

    But pay particular attention to the car he was driving.

    Yeah, with all the money he has made just in the past few years, why is he still driving a 97 Maxima?

    The only thing I can figure is that it is a good way to remain inconspicuous.

    It doesn't surprise me that he would drive a more down-to-earth car, but I wouldn't have expected one quite that old.

    exactly...I also would have expected a hybrid or anything that is "greener" than a 97 Maxima...though it does reportably get an average of 24mpg...

    Latest report is that he is going to be OK, just in a lot of pain, and a few broken bones. And PS, they have also reported that the car....wasn't his. Maybe it was his passengers. They haven't released the condition of his passenger.

    So glad he will recover. I can honestly say that he is probably one of my favorite actors of all time.

    That is a really nice man. He really gives back to his home state. One of my favorite actors. I hope he will be ok.

    I hope he is okay. I really enjoyed his last movie, "The bucket list" with two of my favorite aging actors.

    After seeing that movie, I tried to remember some of his earlier movies. I could remember back to "Glory". I did a search and his career goes all the way back to the 60's with probably over 100 credits to his name. Shawshank is still his best.

    Correction: The Bucket List was not his last movie. He has five in production and three after Bucket. That is one busy guy!

    The video and article both say that it was the female passenger's car. Off the top of my head I can't think of a Morgan Freeman movie that I haven't liked. Dawgbitten is right, he made The Shawshank Redemption.

    His greatest role was on the Electric Company.

    True dat. Did you know that the Robbins role was originally intended for Tom Hanks, who had to pass because he was filming "Forrest Gump." I think Hanks would have ended up with the Oscar either way with those to choices.

    I didn't know that. I'm not a big Tim Robbins fan, mostly because of his and his pseudo wife's politics, but he was pretty good in the movie also.

    That's about the only movie I can tolerate him in, and I think that is largely because of the supporting cast. He seems to always play pretty much the same character, and that character creeps me out. The last time I watch SR I forgot that he was innocent. He's just so slimy-seeming I assume he's guilty. :icon_wink:
