Review of Won't You Be My Neighbor? (2018) by Keithdow — 23 Jun 2018
The documentary ‘Won’t You Be My Neighbor’ explores the life and times of Fred McFeely Rogers, known to generations simply as Mister Rogers, and his basic yet unyielding mission of making the world a better place, one child at a time.
For 30 years he devoted his life to creating a wholesome television show for kids, not for money or fame, but in a simple yet steadfast belief that early childhood development was the key to raising emotionally healthy individuals.
Though the actual filmmaking of ‘Won’t You Be My Neighbor’ is rather basic, the documentary serves as the perfect balm for today’s troubled soul, detailing the extraordinary life of a man who was driven by one very simple message: that everyone has value—and everyone is to be valued—just the way they are.
