A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

January 3 – 9
A BEAUTIFUL DAY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD

In a Golden Globe-nominated performance, 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) is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about kindness, love and forgiveness from America’s most beloved neighbor.
Dir: Marielle Heller / 2019 / US / 107 min

“Under Marielle Heller’s transfixing direction, that consummate actor Tom Hanks succeeds triumphantly at moving past imitation to find Mister Rogers’ nurturing soul. It’s a damn-near irresistible movie that speaks from the heart. Let it in.” – Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

“It’s not only Mister Rogers’s kindness that hovers over ‘Beautiful Day,’ but also his creative spirit. Paying tribute to his skills as a composer, performer and puppeteer, the movie affirms his status as a hero of the imagination.” – A.O. Scott, New York Times

“It’s a sincere, measured, and clever homage to its subject, a work of storytelling that would have made Mister Rogers proud.” – David Sims, The Atlantic
