BCTV Summer Film Series at Boscov Theater: ‘Won’t You Be My Neighbor?’
May 23 @ 7:00 pm – 10:00 pm

BCTV hosts a four-film series in honor of the organization’s 50th anniversary, showing four films that honor community media, public media, public access, and local news in different, unique ways.
Films will be shown at the Boscov Theater located within the GoggleWorks Center for the Arts at 201 Washington St. in Reading. Films will be shown at 7 p.m., and tickets are $10.00.
This touching documentary by Morgan Neville highlights the extraordinary life and work of Fred Rogers, an American children’s television personality. Take a look behind the scenes of one of the most iconic children’s television shows ever, Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood, and discover Rogers’ program like never before.
It’s an understated film, like Rogers himself, and it speaks to the quiet power of using media as a unifying tool. It’s also a tearjerker. Rogerebert.com advises viewers to “Bring Kleenex. Lots of it.” The documentary was listed among Time magazine’s 10 must-see films of 2018.
