This is a man and actor I truly love…… What a double stellar performance in this film. And what a fitting post for this Sunday morning. THANK YOU FOR THIS POST. A peaceful Sunday to all of you.
Yes. So agree Kiki.
I am very glad with your post
Thank you!
beautiful and powerful silence
It is.
Thank you for sharing!
A minute of Silence is needed these days every hour, round the clock!
Agree!
A beautiful meditation with which to start this day. Amazing the images and thoughts that streamed into my mind in that minute, and the lump of gratitude that quickly swelled in my throat. A simple act, a profound impact. Must remember… Wishing you a peaceful Sunday with some of those who have loved you into being, pal….
Yes. Beautifully put Lori. Thank you.
Lori I too had a lump in my throat and an allergy in my eyes (very inconvenient as I was fully beautified and ready to storm off for the day….) ! I always, when I see a sequence of this film and/or read an interview with Tom Hanks I wonder, HOW ON EARTH did he manage to make such looooong pauses, speak so slowly – how hard must it have been to slow down…. and I smile some more!
Perfect! Thanks.
I feel so much better too!
Thanks for the recommendation!
It moved me then. It moves me now. So grateful for Fred, Tom and all those who loved me into being.
yes, agree with you Sandy.

A ‘must watch’ … Tom Hanks as Mr. Fred Rogers in “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood.”
It is a must watch!
Wow.. I’m not crying, you’re crying.
<3
Funny!
Wow! Such a powerful moment. Some of my favorite acting is the subtle stuff without words. I’m reminded of the performances by Bruce Dern in Nebraska and Robert Duvall in Tender Mercies. And who could pull that moment off but Tom Hanks? He is the best. Love this David.
Oh yes Ilona!
I’ve got to see this movie – two of my favorite people, Mr. Rogers and Tom Hanks. What’s not to like! Thanks for sharing.
Jim, I “feel” that you would love this movie.
I loved this part of the movie. You could feel the swell of love in the theatre – so weird and powerful at the same time.
And now we have to send some love to Tom and Rita, both fighting the Corona virus…
So agree….
