Winners List

Grand prize winner: David L. Perry from Atlanta GA

David's nomination for his neighbor, Charles: "When a 22 year old moved next door to me in a high rise, I thought "noise", etc. and there is a 60 year difference in our ages. That was 2 years ago and he has turned into the best neighbor I could ever have wished for. We have become good friends, socialize together and he has been very helpful to me whenever I have a computer problem or need help moving something and many other times I need help. I am almost 85 and he is almost 25. This amazes me that someone so young can be so thoughtful to me. I could not have a better neighbor at any age."

Runners-up: Diane Griffin, Della Stiles-Ingram, Jill Lindsay, Lori Mitchell, Theresa Manning, Brandy Jones, Donna McCann, Mary Hirsch, Amy Byrne, Linda Picard.

About A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood

Tom Hanks portrays Mister Rogers in A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood, a timely story of kindness triumphing over cynicism, based on the true story of a real-life friendship between Fred Rogers and journalists Tom Junod. After a jaded magazine writer (Emmy® winner Matthew Rhys, 2018 Best Actor in a Drama Series, The Americans) is assigned a profile of Fred Rogers, he overcomes his skepticism, learning about kindness, love and forgiveness from America’s most beloved neighbor. A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood will be available on digital February 4, and on 4K Ultra HD™, Blu-ray™ and DVD February 18.
