What The World Needs Now Is (Fred Rogers’) Love

Won’t You Be My Neighbor?
LOVEd Thy Neighbor
Official Site | Trailers & Mo

PG-13 | 94 min

The world has always been a horrible place, but it was a much better one with Fred Rodgers in it, being the Mister master of his neighborhood, and in turn, yours and ours.  Now, I loved me some Mister Rogers, but I cannot say that I remember watching the show beyond pre-K (or remember much of what I actually saw), but him and his sweaters have always been in the back of my mind, recessed on permanent recess.  Well, Fred and his sweaters were brought back to the forefront of my mind, and there they will remain, after seeing the BEYOND MUSS SEE doc by Morgan Neville - Won’t You Be My Neighbor?

You don’t need to be a Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood devotee to be comforted by this warm blanket of a movie.  All you need to be is a human, to be retaught what it means to be human and a compassionate one by the guy who seemed to get that more than anyone – Fred Rogers.  Once destined for the clergy, Rogers was also an expert in working with children and their complex feelings, and when he saw how shoddy television was for the youth of yesterday, he made it his mission that the adolescence evolution will be televised!  The rest is history – a cheerful one, that had me shedding ENDLESS tears of joy, but also tears of sadness.  I was sad cause Mister Rogers is no longer with us, and in today’s day and rage, we need his kind shoulder to lean on more than ever.

The world is better off Fred

It’s A Large World After All

It’s A Small World World’s Fair project – design concept art by Mary Blair for Disney, 1964

The It’s a Small World attraction is located in every Disney theme park around the globe. It began as a 1964 New York World’s Fair attraction in the UNICEF Pavilion, sponsored by Pepsi. Once the World’s Fair closed, it was moved to Disneyland and officially opened on June 28, 1966. Mary Blair was the driving force behind this famous attraction, and her vision, her design, her love of color, and her talent helped make this one of the most popular attractions in the world [HA]

Truth Is Stranger Than Non-Fiction

American Animals
Doc Doc Good
Official Site | Trailers & Mo

R | 117 min

Not enough people see documentaries in theaters (for shame and FIVE shame) and I think director Bart Layton figured out how to change that course – you make a narrative film based on a true story, but you ALSO make it more of a true story by including the true people behind the true story IN the story you tell!  KnowwhatImean?

Seeing is believing in Layton’s American Animals, where fact and friction blur, and entertain the fcuk out of you in a tale of bad deeds gone purty darn bad.

Did you ever hear about the 4 college guys who tried to steal rare books from a Kentucky university library?  Yeah, me neither, but forget about hearing it – cause you need to SEE this!

Told through the mouths of the (sometimes contradicting) real life participants – Warren Lipka, Spencer Reinhard, Eric Borsuk and Chas Allen, and portrayed though the vesseles that are Evan Peters (one of our best), Barry Keoghan (guy has such a killer young resume), Jared Abrahamson (he seems so familiar and yet I have no idea who he is) and Blake Jenner (not one of those Jenners), Animals is the antidote to the anti-dope that (I’m sure, without seeing) Ocean’s 8 is.

For the price of admission – this movie is a STEAL!!!
