Overview
Life Itself recounts the surprising and entertaining life of renowned film critic and social commentator Roger Ebert. The film details his early days as a freewheeling bachelor and Pulitzer Prize winner, his famously contentious partnership with Gene Siskel, his life-altering marriage, and his brave and transcendent battle with cancer.
I was genuinely bummed when Roger Ebert passed. This film was a touching and fascinating documentary on his life. I’ll be going back and reading his reviews for years to come.
