About this movie

Tom Hanks portrays Mister Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Tom Junod. After a jaded magazine writer (Emmy® winner Matthew Rhys, 2018 Best Actor in a Drama Series, The Americans) is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about kindness, love and forgiveness from America's most beloved neighbor.

Why do you (Google Play) discriminate against people who cannot hear well? Many movies on Google Play do not have CC. This one has incomplete closed captions: it doesn't include all the dialog. It just doesn't show full sentences throughout. Further, the text appears at random places on the screen. Studios should not allow Google Play to discriminate against people who are hard of hearing.

This is a pretty good movie, but even though it is billed as a Mr. Rogers movie he is really only a secondary character. The film follows the character journalist Lloyd Vogel and his relationship with his family. Mr. Rogers only really plays a small role in Lloyd's development. It is a touching movie, but Hanks comes off as a little bit intense and creepy as Mr. Rogers.

Ok but lacked the background we completely wanted to know about Mr.Rogers. was he a army sniper collecting general dog tags or no? This movie was more about another actor and not famous Fred Rogers
