New Mr. Rogers Documentary is Out and It's Incredibly Sweet How It's Making Adults Feel
It doesn't matter that Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood was a children's TV show – adults can't stop gushing about the new Fred Rogers biopic.

 

Credits are rolling. Sniffling and nose-blowing echo throughout the theatre. ? My favorite message shared in the film?You don't have to do anything sensational to be deserving of love. #WontYouBeMyNeighbor

 

I started crying when the trolley came out of its box. That was in the first ten minutes. #WontYouBeMyNeighbor

 

I've never heard the sound of so many people crying than just now at the screening of #WontYouBeMyNeighbor. What a special movie about a special man

 

When I was five years old, I had two heroes: Spider-Man and Mr. Rogers.I still dig Spider-Man. But my hero is Mr. Rogers. #WontYouBeMyNeighbor https://t.co/1FuTTLrKkI pic.twitter.com/N6DMCAMByJ

 

Don't know if I've cried more cathartic tears than I did watching #WontYouBeMyNeighbor. The entire theatre just sat there in awe as the credits rolled. Essential viewing. Take tissues. Throw some love out into the world. pic.twitter.com/ZKGKZf6y9f

 

#WontYouBeMyNeighbor. Wow. An audience of tender grown-ups leaving the theater tonight in LA. BF & I had to pause in parking structure to cry a lil bit more, alone. What a film. Please, please, please go see.

Dalai Lama Visits Hawaii, Talks up Peace Through the "Power of Aloha"

The Dalai Lama brought his message of peace and compassion -- and his trademark humor -- to Hawaii, celebrating the coming together of two native cultures. Similar to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition, the indigenous culture of Hawaii has its own inherent spirituality. He calls it compassion. We call it Aloha, said one participant at the events sponsored by eBay founder, Pierre Omidyar.
