Exclusive: Mahershala Ali and Viggo Mortensen Form an Unlikely Friendship in Green Book Clip

If you're wondering what film you should see this month [1], let us help you out real quick by recommending Green Book [2]. The Peter Farrelly-directed drama, which premieres on Nov. 21, is currently raking in accolades like the People's Choice award at the Toronto International Film Festival, and it's not hard to see why.

Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali stars as Dr. Don Shirley, a world-class black pianist, who hires Tony Lip (Academy Award nominee Viggo Mortensen [3]), a Bronx-born bouncer, to drive him on a concert tour that extends from Manhattan to the Deep South. Using the "Green Book," which serves as a guide to the establishments that were safe at the time for African-Americans, the pair navigate the ups and downs of their lengthy road trip together.

In our exclusive (and pretty funny) clip above, you'll get a glimpse of the unlikely friendship that blossoms between the real-life duo. Check it out, and then see all the other movies we're excited about this Fall [4].
