To die is to be human

A renowned and rewarded - also feared - journalist Lloyd Vogel of Esquire magazine is given an assignment out of spite to interview a children's TV show host and probably the nicest man on earth, an angel in disguise, Fred Rogers. It doesn't take long until the seasoned journalist's skin is softened to the nice old man's positive view of the world, his insights, and, in a way, things are reversed. The beautiful story is contagious and inspirational. The people in the lead (Tom Hanks and Matthew Rhys) and others in the cast are downright amazing. Perhaps the biggest feelgood and thought-provoking surpise of the year.
