A great 'Neighbor'
In Morgan Neville's touching documentary "Won't You Be My Neighbor?" (⋆⋆⋆⋆; PG-13), Fred McFeely Rogers is shown as a man whose life was devoted to kindness toward the most vulnerable group in the world, children.

An ordained minister, he used "Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood" as a pulpit. The man on-screen was who he was in life.
