Review of Life Itself (2014) by Walter Addiego for San Francisco Chronicle — 04 Jul 2014
It's fascinating stuff, but secondary to Ebert's genuine passion for the movies, which, if anything, grew toward the end of his life. He saw film as a great civilizing force, "a machine that generates empathy," as he says in the film.
If that idea appeals to you, see Life Itself.
