Documentary: Won't You Be My Neighbor (the Mister Rogers documentary)

Charmingly soft-spoken and yet powerfully incisive expressing his profound ideals, Fred Rogers was a unique presence on television for generations. Through interviews with his family and colleagues, the life of this would-be pastor is explored as a man who found a more important calling to provide an oasis for children in a video sea of violent bombardment.
This documentary paints a portrait of the philosophy and work of the cardigan-wearing children's entertainer and his show “Mister Rogers' Neighborhood.” Mister Rogers creatively communicated themes of empathy and acceptance using a colorful cast of puppets and friends for more than 30 years.
It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood, a beautiful day for a neighbor, would you be mine?
