Tom Hanks playing Mr. Rogers

Not sure.  Trying to visualize the storyline and plot of the movie.  I mean they can't just show the one apartment room and him changing his shoes for two hours.

Well... He does go to "The Neighborhood of Make-Believe",  has speedy deliveries, and visits violin makers and paper mills.

The real Mr. Rogers was a pretty normal, decent guy, right?

 

Like he wasn't a pedophile or drug addict or anything.

 

So I will probably not see it.  Not sure there's much of a movie there.

 

 

 

I like Tom Hanks. Would you prefer he play Pee Wee Herman?

I like Tom Hanks too, it's just that I think he gets too many real-life roles.

 

His performance as Walt Disney was weird. Not the first person I would have picked for that role, or for this.

 

Yet for some reason, Felicity Jones has been cast to play Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

I agree about Hanks.  Great actor of course but doesn't look like a Mr. Rogers.

 

You know who I think would have been a great choice?

 

Benedict Cumberbatch

 

Image result for benedict cumberbatch

Just based on looks alone?

 

In that case, it should've been Anne Hathaway

I rather dislike Tom Hanks!  

 

I didn't know there was the documentary that Chevy Van Miller mentioned.

 

I'd be much more interested in watching that than a Hollywood semi-fictional account of his life.

 

In fact, I'll make it a point to see the documentary based on CVM's recommendation.  

 

I love good documentaries.

Or Christopher Walken.
