Green Book, released in 2018, is about Frank Vallelonga (Viggo Mortensen) who is an out-of-work nightclub bouncer trying to provide for his family in New York City in the 1960s. He gets a tip - a musician wants to hire a driver.

He meets the gifted but aloof jazz pianist Don Shirley (Mahershala Ali), who is looking for someone to drive him through a concert tour of the racially segregated South.
