Reviews

Hitchcoc Fred Rogers was after my time when it came to childhood. But my kids knew him and sat quietly, watching his basically mundane presentation. I have, on numerous occasions, had to talk to people who speak of him with disdain, saying his show was boring. My response is, "You're not five years old!" He had a consistency and a gentleness that is missing so badly in our frenetic society. Little children love consistency. This is a man who had to face off against forces that should have overwhelmed him. His appearance before the House is precious. His love of every kind of child without being maudlin, his basic honesty, comes through. It wasn't an easy road. He suffered from depression and fear himself, but he was always true to himself. I won't get into the specifics of the current political climate in our country, but we could learn something from this.
Cole Waters Won't you be my neighbor is very very good and very important for everything and everyone
natashadelimaframinghamma I will see this more than 1 time. This man is peace, quality and so ahead of his time, he saved over 5 generations of kids that survived despite all of the democrats trying to break us, he was a voice of love and acceptance in our heads. Please watch this amazing movie. I remember scenes like it was yesterday.
Hellmant 'WON'T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR': Four Stars (Out of Five)A documentary on the life and career of Fred Rogers, the host of 'MR ROGERS' NEIGHBORHOOD'. It was directed by Morgan Neville (a veteran director of documentary films). The movie has received nearly unanimous positive reviews from critics, and it's a huge hit at the Box Office as well (for a documentary that is). I enjoyed it.Morgan Neville examines the life, career, and philosophy of Fred Rogers (from the time he first started his classic TV show). Neville interviews Rogers, and many other celebrities who knew him, including former guests from his show. The film really depicts what Rogers was trying to do with his seemingly very simple and kid oriented TV show. His mission was always one of pure love and compassion, the film easily demonstrates. The movie is definitely really positive and sweet; pretty much everything you'd expect a documentary about Mr. Rogers to be like. It does go a little deeper into his philosophy (on why he did the things he did, and what he hoped to accomplish) than I had previously known before. I really respect the film for that, and I respect Fred Rogers a bit more than I previously did as well. The movie is very slow-paced though, and at times a little boring.
