SEATTLE — Fred Rogers is not the main focus of the new movie, It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood. it's inspired by the true story of a journalist, played by Matthew Rhys, whose life was changed when he wrote a profile on Fred Rogers. The reporter's wife is played by Susan Kelechi Watson, of "This Is Us" fame, and his dad is played by Academy Award winner Chris Cooper.
I brought all of them gifts from Seattle because local company Papersalt makes a line of Mister Rogers Products - designed, printed and shipped in SoDo. His inspiring quotes are printed on lunch notes, gift cards, and books.
I asked the cast which of ones resonate the most with them.
