The Secret Power of Saying ‘I Love You’

Mr. Happy Man is the true story of 88-year-old Johnny Barnes, who spends hours each morning wishing Bermuda’s commuters well. “From twenty to four to ten [a.m.], I stand on the corner and just greet people and let them know that life is sweet, life is beautiful — no matter what happens in life, it’s always sweet to be alive,” Barnes explains in the film. Directed by Matt Morris, this short documentary imparts a little slice of that feeling.
