RE: "Life Itself:" bio of super-critic Roger Ebert. SPOILER
Posted by Daryl Zero on July 27, 2014 at 22:06:38:
I enjoyed it. As to Ebert's physical appearance, that's the way he looked and he wasn't afraid to show himself. Saying that showing him was wrong misses the point. Should we hide sick or deformed people? I thought Ebert bravely faced (no pun intended) his disabilities and persevered doing what he loved and figuring out how to still be relevant.
I thought the movie was a nice balance of his early career, his talent and problems, his relationship with Siskel and then with his wife and his wife's family, and his impact as a critic.
I would definitely recommend it.
