Long Boring Praise

More From Roger Ebert

In the nineteenth year and the eleventh month speak your tattered kaddish for all suicides: praise to life though it crumbled in like a tunnel on ones we knew and loved praise to life though its windows blew shut on the breathing-room of ones we knew and loved praise to life though ones we knew and loved loved it badly, too well, and not enough praise to life though it tightened like a knot on the hearts of ones we thought we knew loved us praise to life giving room and reason to ones we knew and loved who felt unpraisable. praise to them, how they loved it, when they could.
Suicide Heart Years
Do you have doubts about life? are you unsure if it's worth the trouble? look at the sky: that is for you. look at each person's face as you pass on the street: those faces are for you. and the street itself, and the ground under the street and the ball of fire underneath the ground: all these things are for you. they are as much for you as they are for other people. remember this when you wake up in the morning and think you have nothing. stand up and face the east. now praise the sky and praise the light within each person under the sky. it's okay to be unsure. but praise, praise, praise.
Morning Thinking Fire
I read reviews of critics i respect and feel i can learn something from. right now there are a lot of bottom-feeder critics who just have access to a computer and don't necessarily have an academic or cinema background that i can detect, so i tend to ignore that and stay with the same top-tier critics that i've come to respect. i like reading a good review - it doesn't have to be favorable, but a well-thought-out one - because i very much appreciate the relationship of directors and critics.
Reading Appreciate Computer
There are television critics, movie critics, and theater critics too who i like and who i follow and i get genuinely bummed when they don't like something that i've written because i usually agree with them.
Television Theater Critics
I never want movie theaters go away. it is the greatest time out on the town. you go out, it's a great place to go, great location, great hang, great date, good place to be with friends. but as an actor who works hard at making movies, i am glad that no matter what people can see your movie on. it's hard to keep a theater for long time; there are so many movies, so when you leave a theater, you're just glad there's a life for your movie.
Hard Work Long People
When critics ask you if you feel vindicated by other critics - i didn't like critics then, and i don't like them now. there you go. i've always been outside the mainstream, and it stayed that way.

Climate change is not going away. it will only get more extreme and more dangerous with time. there is no hiding from it. yes, those living in poverty today will be hit first and the hardest, but we are all going to feel it and see it. we already are.
