Director Steve James and Chaz Ebert in person!

Thursday, October 30, 2014 - Aero Theatre, Santa Monica, CA

Part of a double feature with STEVIE (2002)

Oscar-nominated filmmaker Steve James (HOOP DREAMS) directed this loving but clear-eyed portrait of Roger Ebert, one of the best-known and most influential movie critics of all time. Based on Ebert’s memoir, this moving documentary recounts his professional growth from politicized school newspaperman to Pulitzer Prize-winning Chicago Sun-Times film critic to television household name, as well as his personal journey - after finding love at 50, he waged a public battle with thyroid cancer and emerged as a major voice on the Internet when he could no longer physically speak.
