Title: A must read for film lovers
Product review: First, I must admit that I'm not always Ebert's biggest fan. He tends to review films with an overly favorable eye. His year-end summary books always get me arguing with his points-of-view.Therefore, I was completely surprised when, after receiving this book as a gift, I fell completely in love with this book. This book shows an author completely in love with the movies. Here's a man who just wants so badly to share his favorites with his readers. The reviews are beautifully written and completely engaging. Instead of arguing about his point-of-view, I was again reminded of what a great writer Ebert is.While this book is written so that it can be picked and put back down as a reference, I found myself tearing through it in one sitting. I've referred back to it countless times. This goes up on the shelf with Pauline Kael's works.
