My thoughts on the movie "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" · 1:52am Oct 25th, 2018
Should it be fair to say how amazingly raw this documentary is? Answer: no. Yet, here we are! This documentary was absolutely incredible! The fact that they got Mr. Rogers' friends/family/former crew members (which to him, he considered them all friends) to speak about their experiences with him was absolutely amazing. While it has been 15 years since he has passed, they used archival footage to have him "in" the documentary (like they do quite a few modern documentaries with deceased subjects.). I swear by the time it was over, I was in tears! Both for the fact that we lost such an amazing human being and slight nostalgia reasons. Who knew that despite his calm and all around friendly demeanor, he had some serious insecurities? That's what surprised me the most. Thusly after watching the documentary, I went on YouTube and watched a few episodes.
