Won't You Be My Neighbor?

Won't You Be My Neighbor? is actually the very first documentary and non fiction film I ever saw in theaters. The film deals with the life and philosophy of Fred Rogers as well as the behind the scenes of his long running show Mister Rogers' Neighborhood. Various people from Rogers' life, including those who worked with him on the show, spoke about the kindness of the man. Whether it was his wife, kids, musician and friend Yo-Yo Ma, and costar and friend Francois Clemmons you get to learn about both the amazing things and the sad things that occurred in his life. I never grew up with the show and haven't seen any of the episodes, but I was always interested in learning more about him. This was really beautiful and something that everyone needs to see as it is a deep exploration of a man so loved but even after so many years still had some doubts. The music especially used throughout the film is really good at emphasizing the emotions you feel in certain parts. While there were a few small parts wherein Rogers had an opinion about something that I didn't agree with, at least he had a good reason and made some fine points to them. Over all: 100%
