Ebert Answers Ten
He’s not yet ready for a return to syndicated television, and use of The Thumbs has vanished in his absence, but Roger Ebert is doing what Roger Ebert does, as he says, “writing as much, or more, than ever” at his Sun Times site.
In a quick ten questions from Movie City News, The Most Respected Critic in America weighs in on a handful of old school/new school debates: digital versus celluloid, print versus internet criticism, and les enfants terribles (The Young Mumblecores) versus the over-70 set (Coppola, Lumet, Herzog). His assessment on the state of film in 2007 may not be what you’d expect. Ebert grades on a curve that reflects little on the worthiness of new or archaic practices, but rather has everything to do with what will always take precedence, “the talent, the story, the acting.”
