Some movies are really magical, it has the power to touch our hearts with a single scene itself. Watching such scene cleanses our soul. A beautiful day in the neighborhood surely does cleanse our soul with delighting story and cast. It is an American biographical drama film directed by Marielle Heller, written by Micah Fitzerman Blue amd Noah Harpster. It is inspired by the 1998 article "Can You Say... Hero?. The Movie stars, 2 time oscar winner Tom Hanks as Mr Fred Rogers a. k. a Mister Rogers, Matthew Rhys as Lloyd Vogel, Susan Kelechi Watson And Chris Cooper in the  lead.
     The movie starts with a happy-happy children's song sung by Fred Rogers. All the arrangements are set like a lego movie theme. He then introduces the protagonist Lloyd Vogel, a journalist whose been sent to interview the ideal Mr Rogers,who is same as the person he is offscreen and onscreen. The movie is a fable on how kindness, honesty, gentleness of a man can change and play a role in one's life to make it better.  Some of the scenes in the movie make us feel emotionally low.

     Tom Hanks has given a stellar performance and he has succeeded in  grabbing all the eyeballs. Matthew Rhys has done his part so well. Both the actors took this movie to limelight.
     This movie with an intense drama and wonderful acting is a blissful treat for our eyes. This shows us that simplicity can definitely conquer. The movie shows how a man who has devoted his life to being kind helps a man with a professional investment in skepticism to become a little better.
    Overall a simple yet expressive movie with a strong subject and indeed giving a powerful message to our generation.
