Life & Beth (2022)
I like Amy Schumer
Amy Schumer fascinates me. I watched this whole season in one sitting, which is unusual for me to do. Because I'm an Amy fan, I knew a lot was autobiographical and...good job fictionalizing the tough stuff that happened in your life, Amy.
A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (2019)
Good movie, but could've used more editing
I enjoyed much of this movie, but became antsy toward the end. It was just too long. I'm a huge fan of the real Mr. Rogers, having discovered his show as a teenager (and making fun of it) and loving it while watching with my own children years later.
Hanks did a good job capturing Rogers mannerisms and speech patterns, but I must admit at times I heard a bit of Forest Gump coming from his mouth...and Woody from Toy story.
I'm not sure how the very few interactions between Mr. Rogers and Vogel would've changed the reporter's outlook on family, sadness and anger so quickly, but I suspended disbelief and reasoned the dialogue between the two was perhaps deeper in real life than what the script provided.
I caught myself smiling through much of this movie and tears threatened to fall in parts of it. So, though It's A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood has faults, I still recommend it if you love Mr. Rogers.
