Life Itself
2014 · 2h 1m · Documentary · United States of America · Rated R (US)
The only thing Roger loved more than movies.
The surprising and entertaining life of renowned film critic and social commentator Roger Ebert (1942-2013): 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.
