"Broadcast News is next on the list. I’m a big Holly Hunter fan. I just think it’s a great movie; it’s funny, it’s sad, it’s interesting. It’s got that archetype of the ambitious news woman, you know? I like that she’s behind the scenes. It’s a character that I’ve never played in a movie. I think that I’m always waiting for that role; they all seem to go to Rachel McAdams. [laughs] You know, that inquisitive journalist who’s behind the scenes and is super feisty. We’ve done a couple episodes of Community where I got to sort of channel that energy. But it’s definitely a role I’ve always had my eye on, and Holly Hunter is such a singular actress in her style, and her voice is unique, and she’s such a petite woman; I think she carries her strength in an interesting way. She just emanates strength and confidence. She also has amazing crying scenes. It’s a great showcase of her acting."

Beautiful Day

A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood- is more about the person interviewing Mr. Rodgers than Mr. Rodgers himself and to that i say "their was a documentary that came out in 2018, called "Won't You Be My Neighbor?", that focus on Mr. Rogers more". This film is still a good movie, i just wish it was more about Mr. Rogers than the person interviewing him. Tom Hanks does a excellent job playing Mr. Rodgers, he reminded me alot of Mr. Rogers, brings back memories.

The plot: Lloyd Vogel is an investigative journalist who receives an assignment to profile Fred Rogers, aka Mr. Rogers. He approaches the interview with skepticism, as he finds it hard to believe that anyone can have such a good nature. But Roger's empathy, kindness and decency soon chips away at Vogel's jaded outlook on life, forcing the reporter to reconcile with his own painful past.

Like i said before its a good movie.
