A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood Failure to Adapt

Is there an interview subject so humble even God can’t get them to talk about themself? Mister Rodgers is as close as it gets, and yet Tom Junod’s 1998 profile is a masterclass turned into an equally ambitious film. Red Scott and Maggie Tokuda-Hall are back to talk the Tom Junod Esquire profile, Can You Say...“Hero”?, and 2019’s A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood Directed by Marielle Heller.
You can read the 1998 Tom Junod profile of Mister Rodgers, Can You Say.. “Hero”?, here.
