Won’t You Be My Neighbor – 6

Whether you think “Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood” was warm and fuzzy or vapid and cloying will determine your reaction to this movie, which faithfully recounted the career of Fred Rogers and his unique view of television. Regardless of your view, and I lean toward the latter camp, the film does make one wonder if kids are inherently attracted to pie-throwing and violence; or if not, has children’s television had such an influence? Of course, we should all agree that more portrayals of niceness and goodness would be beneficial, but I’d rather they come with the art and intelligence of Sesame Street.
