Roger Ebert loved movies.
Except for those he hated.
For a film with a daring director, a talented
cast, a captivating plot or, ideally, all three, there could be no
better advocate than Roger Ebert, who passionately celebrated and
promoted excellence in film while deflating the awful, the derivative,
or the merely mediocre with an observant eye, a sharp wit and a depth of
knowledge that delighted his millions of readers and viewers.
