Though the Best Documentary Feature category is typically one of the toughest to predict, especially this early on in the year, there's already a ton of festival buzz surrounding the Mr. Rogers documentary Won't You Be My Neighbor?, which has scored many rave reviews from the festival circuit, and could just be the warm-hearted, cynicism-free doc the world needs right now.

Again, there's plenty of time for other contenders to make themselves known, but considering the love for Mr. Rogers in American culture in particular, it's easy to see this retrospective of the children's entertainer's life and times barrelling its way to an easy Oscar win.
