SNUB: Won’t You Be My Neighbor? (Best Documentary Feature)
Morgan Neville’s loving (none too critical) look at the life and career of Fred Rogers was a huge commercial success, touching hearts with its sentimental approach and hero-celebration.
The docu was thought to be a shoo-in for this year’s Oscars.
Rather surprisingly, after being on a short list of 9, it was left off the five final nomination list.
The docu “Of Fathers and Sons” joined the other favorite non-fictional features in this category, such as “RBG” and “Free Solo.”
