COMMUNITY REVIEWS

roger submitted by Jackie77 on July 13, 2015, 3:35am Nice film about Roger and his love for movies

Outstanding submitted by Beth Manuel on July 13, 2015, 1:37pm This film was really, really good. I was blown away at Roger Ebert's tenacity and will to not just survive, but live so openly and freely under extremely painful, difficult physical circumstances. It was a welcome glimpse into his private life, his loving wife, his many friends, his frequent blogging before blogging was even 'a thing'. I gained a lot of respect for this man after watching the film. I highly recommend this documentary and be prepared to tear up.

Absorbing submitted by willow on August 23, 2015, 4:25pm This film takes a look at Roger Ebert's life and the development of film criticism. I wasn't sure this movie would really be that interesting -- but it actually was quite compelling!
