A Good Person (2023)

In A Good Person, Oscar winner Morgan Freeman (Se7en, The Shawshank Redemption) and Oscar nominee Florence Pugh (Oppenheimer, Dune: Part Two) co-star as Daniel and Allison, whose lives are both shattered by the car accident that takes Daniel’s daughter’s life. As Daniel navigates raising his teenage granddaughter (Celeste O’Connor from Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire) and Allison seeks redemption, they discover that friendship, forgiveness, and hope can flourish in unlikely places.

Directed by Emmy nominee Zach Braff (Garden State, Scrubs), the film’s cast includes Emmy nominees Molly Shannon (The Other Two) and Jackie Hoffman (Only Murders in the Building, Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery), Nigerian-American Toby Onwumere (Sense8, Empire), and Chinaza Uche (Silo), who was nominated for a BAFTA Scotland Best Actor award as Nathan.

As The Hollywood Reporter says, “Pugh delivers a superb starring performance that serves to accentuate her growing artistic stature and co-star Morgan Freeman turns in his best work in years.”
