Esquire Publishes Article on Roger Ebert
Friday, February 19th, 2010Esquire Magazine recently featured an incredible article about Roger Ebert, one of the truly great movie critics. The article paints a portrait of Ebert’s life, and specifically, how Ebert’s battle with cancer left him without a lower jaw—without the ability to speak, eat, and drink. Yet Ebert continues to review movies, writes an online journal, and counts himself as an incredibly happy man. From the article:

He has those hands. And his wide and expressive eyes, despite everything, are almost always smiling.
