AN EXTREMELY RUSHED TRIBUTE TO ROGER EBERT

A classic selection from the screenplay by the late ROGER EBERT
"She was living in a single room with three other individuals. One of them was a male, and the other two, well the other two were females. God only knows what they were up to in there... and furthermore, Susan, I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to learn that all four of them habitually smoked marijuana cigarettes... reefers!"

Another epic Ebert script: the guy did more than review movies, he wrote 'em!
4/4/2013 Roger Ebert joins Gene Siskel... Rest in Peace, and save the aisle cloud!
The News ain't  covering Ebert's awesome scriptwriting credits, so that's that... It's done... RIP!

  1. I just heard this now that he had died. As long as I can remember reading or watching movie reviews there was Roger Ebert (and Siskel too). I had just read earlier what he had wrote about his cancer coming back. *poof* and then he's gone. I knew it couldn't have been good with his announcement but so quick, jeez.

    RIP Roger Ebert. Whether I disagreed with you or you turned me on to movie after movie you will be missed sir.

    Wow. So quick.
