A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

Tom Hanks portrays Fred Rogers in a timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between him and journalist Lloyd Vogel. After a jaded magazine writer is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about empathy, kindness, and decency from America's most beloved neighbor.


Please plan to arrive at about 1:30 to allow time to grab your popcorn and settle in before we start the film at 1:45, and, if your schedule allows, linger for a few minutes after to discuss the film.
