Roger Ebert Interview

Someday when you have some time, you might want to read this:

Roger Ebert Cancer Battle - Roger Ebert Interview - Esquire

And then read this.

I have a lot of admiration for Roger Ebert.

Me too. God bless him. It looks as if he intends to go out surrounded by his books.

With all the health problems Ebert has to endure, you might think he would just give up on Life. But, like another great writer who was plagued by a myriad of health problems, Samuel Johnson, Ebert is going down fighting. I admire that.

Ditto. Thanks for linking to that, Bill.

I've not been a fan of Ebert's reviewing for the most part, but he's genuinely in love with film, and until I read the ESQUIRE piece last night I didn't know just what kind of genuinely tough struggle he's been facing. Indeed, remarkable that he's facing all this with such grace...and what a lot of fun tricks life plays on us.
