I am pleasantly surprised to see you say such pleasant things about a screaming liberal like Ebert.

His review of Pearl Harbor was one for the ages.

"Pearl Harbor" is a two-hour movie squeezed into three hours, about how on Dec. 7, 1941, the Japanese staged a surprise attack on an American love triangle.

His review of Secretariat was not, but his response to the review of it on Salon was great. Wonderful writer. Here's a nice piece from one of the Deadspin writers- a few years old, still really moving:
