    : Pure love for a thing, you will be full of happiness, stick to it for a lifetime, maybe you can achieve a little result; form your own aesthetic taste and judgment standards, do not superstitute authority and rest on your laurels; extreme views are also opinions, learn to think independently about individual expression, and face the group circle , Adhere to the bottom line of interests; broaden personal horizons, keep fresh, and learn forever.

    The bjiff documentary#Life is like a play# tells the story of film critic Roger Ebert. It is recommended to watch it on the big screen. His love for movies is so pure that you can fight with his partner for a movie. Feeling the communication with his soul, especially his support for young directors, as well as their gratitude to him, his criticism of Martin Scorsese, and Martin's calm acceptance, the tears could not be stopped at all....

    A very informative documentary. There's no doubt that Ebert has a life worth living, and like a good movie, death is the way the movie ends at the end, more in Ebert's way than the death of his old partner Gene: don't be afraid. Everything is like this, don't be...

    about life itself

    The opening 30 minutes of "Life Is Like a Play" are not very engaging. As a documentary about dead celebrities, the director did not use the usual flashbacks, but used Roger Ebert's days in the hospital throughout. A non-linear narrative approach to its growth process. Until 40 minutes later, I...

    imperfect but alive

    I knew something about Roger Ebert before and read some of his film reviews, but because of the different times, I don't know much about his influence. Filmed in the final stages of his life, in his final battle with illness in the hospital, this documentary focuses on his impact on the filmmaker...

Life Itself quotes

  • [Director Steve James is filming Roger in the hospital where he's just shown him the new chair he will use]

    Steve James: So Roger, did you not pay your insurance premiums, and so you didn't get the chair till now?

    Roger Ebert: [through voice synthesizer on his laptop] Steve, I'll do the jokes here.

  • Roger Ebert: When I mentioned in my blog that I could no longer eat, drink, or speak, a reader wrote, "Do you miss it?" Not so much, really. I lived in a world of words long before I was aware of it. The new reality took shape slowly. My blog became my voice, my outlet. It let loose the flood of memories. They came pouring forth in a flood of relief.
