Movies and TV A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

When I was a little kid in Macon we had channels 3, 7 and 10, and 3 only on good weather days. PBS wasn't one of them, so I never watched Mr. Rogers.

Saw his show as a kid. Seems like a great person. I'll probably rent it

Doubt I’ll be going to the theater for it, but it’s a lock to rent

He was such a calming, Grandpa-like presence when I watched as a kid... a truly lovely man

Tom Hanks will probably be really good in this movie.

Just from the trailer I would have to say I was disappointed. He looks and sounds nothing like Fred Rodgers. Didn’t really nail the mannerisms either.

I love Hanks, but think he’s miscast here.

If he wasnt such a whack job Jim Carrey would have been better for this role.

I agree. I wasn't buying it at all. Maybe you just have to get used to it as the movie goes along.

should've have Rami Malek do it.

I’m informing you now...Captain Kangaroo told me to go fuck myself. Shari Lewis refused to shake the hand of my then 6yo son. Don’t try to make a movie about either of those child-hating frauds...�� — Ellen Barkin (@EllenBarkin) July 23, 2019
