Wondering If the Mister Rogers Documentary Will Make You Cry? Well, Is His Cardigan Red?

About 90 seconds in to WONT YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR the trolley is lovingly taken out of a box and put on a track and that is when I began sobbing.

I started crying shortly after the title screen of Won’t You Be My Neighbor? and pretty much kept going until the end

WONT’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR: I have never heard that many people crying in a movie theatre at once. Simply one of the most profound and spiritual experiences I’ve ever had in a theatre. This is the film of 2018 and then some.

Also it’s a much needed movie right now, especially with all the crap that is going on around us #WontYouBeMyNeighbor

The Mr Rogers doc, “Wont You Be My Neighbor” is one of the best theater experiences I’ve ever had - not a dry eye in the house.

“won’t you be my neighbor?” is 93 minutes long and my entire row in the theater was sobbing for at least 70 of those minutes

I just left @MrRogersMovie and I don't know if I've ever seen a an entire theater so happy and so sad at the same time.

i saw wont you be my neighbor last night and the whole audience stayed through the credits so they could compose themselves after the moving there was audible sobbing

finishing Queer Eye season 2 tonight because I rewatched WONT YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR earlier and apparently I want to continue crying

As a small kid my single mother couldn’t afford cable. #PBS was what we had. I never realized how much of an impact #MisterRogers had on me.

As the theatre illuminated, I thought only I had wet eyes but was met with a collective group all wiping their faces.@MrRogersMovie

I can only interpret the success of the RBG and Mr. Rogers docs as a sign of how much we crave evidence right now that some humans are, in fact, good and wise.

WONT YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR? is the most timely message of goodness I've ever seen on a movie screen. #MrRogers #youarespecial

Thank you, @MrRogersMovie. This documentary is a breath of fresh air. It’s been a long time since I’ve sat in a theatre, as the lights came up, crying uncontrollable tears of joy. A much needed shot of kindness and inspiration.
