On Tuesday Feb. 15, the movie “A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood” will be showing at the Heartland Center for Spirituality for the winter series of “Movies with a Message.”
Tom Hanks portrays Mister Rogers in this timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalist Lloyd Vogel. After a jaded magazine writer is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about kindness, love and forgiveness from America’s most beloved neighbor.
The movie begins at 6:15 p.m. in the Auditorium of the Motherhouse of the Dominican Sisters of Peace,3600 Broadway Ave. Other movies in the series include: “Life for Life: Maximilian Kolbe” (Friday, March 11), “The Soloist” (Tuesday, April 12) and “Secretariat” (Tuesday, May 17).
