Film Critic Roger

From America's most trusted and best-known film critic, one hundred brilliant essays on the films that define for him cinematic greatness. For the past five years Roger Ebert, the famed film writer and critic, has been writing biweekly essays for a feature called "The Great Movies," in which he offers a fresh and fervent appreciation of a great film. "The Great Movies collects one hundred of these essays, each one of them a gem of critical appreciation and an amalgam of love, analysis, and history that will send readers back to that film with a fresh set of eyes and renewed enthusiasm-or perhaps to an avid first-time viewing. Ebert's selections range widely across genres, periods, and nationalities, and from the highest achievements in film art to justly beloved and wildly successful popular entertainments. Roger Ebert manages in these essays to combine a truly populist appreciation for our most important form of popular art with a scholar's erudition and depth of knowledge and a sure aesthetic sense. Wonderfully enhanced by stills selected by Mary Corliss, film curator at the Museum of Modern Art, "The Great Movies is a treasure trove for film lovers of all persuasions, an unrivaled guide for viewers, and a book to return to again and again. "The Great Movies includes: "All About Eve - Bonnie and Clyde - Casablanca - Citizen Kane - The Godfather - Jaws - La Dolce Vita - Metropolis - On the Waterfront - Psycho - The Seventh Seal - Sweet Smell of Success - Taxi Driver - The Third Man - The Wizard of Oz - and eighty-five more films.

What would you do if hard times came to your hometown and made you mad as hell? If you're Michael Moore, you'd hold bingo game fund-raisers every Tuesday night for three years. Sell your home and virtually everything in it. And sink nearly every penny into making "Roger & Me," the uproariously funny movie named to more that 80 film critics' 1989 10-best lists. It also won year's-best awards from the New York, Los Angeles and National Society of Film Critics and the National Board of Review. Word of mouth about "Roger & Me" spread like wildfire. Moore himself emerged as a modern folk hero. All because he doggedly and hilariously tried to do what every working stiff dreams of: talk to the man at the top. Moore's efforts to meet General Motors Chairman Roger Smith and persuade him to visit Moore's hometown of Flint, Michigan, provides the framework of a film that uses humor to devastating effect. "Roger & Me" champions people over profits. And it howlingly lampoons corporate America as it shows how the working men and women of Flint cope with economic setbacks.
