Mister Rogers & Me (2010)
The filmmaker's mother lived on Nantucket and was an actual neighbor of Mr. Rogers, who had a summer home on the island. Benjamin Wagner uses this barely-there relationship as a springboard for this look at who the late Rogers was in his everyday life. Spoiler: he was the same guy we see on TV.
It's not a good documentary. But it is about a very good and kind person, so one can't help but be inspired and happy. But, still, it's not a well-done effort -- it felt like a high-school presentation on "my childhood hero."
