  • While I loved Won't You Be My Neighbor, I can see why this won the Oscar. Perhaps if the only way they could access the archive footage of Fred Rogers was by hanging 3000 feet in the air then it would have had a chance.

    In the end, I was a little underwhelmed by this. I mean he comes off as a selfish sadist and although the visuals were gorgeous that's really all this has going for it. I don't care how well you climb, you don't eat out of a frying pan with a spatula.
