I saw photos of Roger Ebert when he was battling cancer and after his jaw was removed, but this is the first time I have seen him interviewed in that condition, nearly a decade after it was filmed. It was sad to see him this way, but it was very touching to see what a loving relationship he had with his wife, who was very supportive and dedicated to him.

Ebert could have died gracefully as this battle was a lost cause, but he stuck around a little longer without a jaw or a voice, it did affect his legacy somewhat due to his appearance in the end.

I cried when i saw my idol in pain. The Best Film Critic around!

This was beautiful and very touching, I think its great what he is doing. It goes to show what a great marriage can do for a person!

Roger Ebert is the single biggest reason why I became a movie buff. I started reading his reviews in the '90s and he, over time and with great patience, taught me how to appreciate a good film. He was also incredibly giving to the internet film community, communicating with anyone back in the Compuserve days (1995) of the net. This back & forth eventually lead to me being lucky enough to be quoted in two of his books. Keep it up Roger!!

I only discovered him during the summer of 2016 and I feel like movies after him are never the same, R.I.P Roger ebert

Man this interview really ripped my hear out of chest because I did not know Robert battled cancer like that in his final years. The last couple of minutes do make me a lot happier though knowing he spent the last leg of his life still able to do everything he loves. Seeing him cooking with his wife, visiting his colleagues, enjoying movies in his own theatre, and most importantly still writing reviews. I just hope his final years were blissful and pleasant.

Oh, this is so moving. Roger Ebert is my favorite film critic, and his story with cancer is very inspiring. A tremendously cultured and reasonable man.

I don't understand all the hate for Roger Ebert and all these people saying he deserved to die. He was a film Critic not Adolf Hitler!!!! Just because he gave a film you might like "thumbs down" is not a good reason to hate someone. It's like the Roger Ebert haters want everybody to have the same opinion or taste in films as they do!!

Roger was a great friend, charming, funny, smart. He didn’t deserve this disease. A true champion!

He and Gene Siskel revolutionized the way people viewed film criticism. The two of them brought unique and contrasting perspectives to their show, but were similar in their love of film and viewpoint that film is a serious medium that conveys views of the times at hand and society at large throughout the years. He tirelessly watched and reviewed films and wrote on the nature of cinema and art until his last moments. That is why he is famous.

I was never a huge fan of Ebert until I watched the documentary of his life....the beautiful relationship between Ebert and his wife moved me incredibly!

RIP Roger Ebert. Loved reading your reviews.

It really gets me how, even without his voice, you can still tell how sweet and loving of a person he is. Him and Gene are greatly missed. Film criticism has really gone into the toilet since then.

10yrs later I just found out about this guy. I just googled "movie critics" and many came up but I picked him. I'm glad I did❤️. May his soul rest in peace 🙏

He was a great guy. I loved watching him and Siskel as a kid on Public TV.

God bless Roger Ebert. He didnt let cancer ( or the effects of cancer) bring him down at all. His story is so amazing that i have watched this video like 20 times. Most people would have given up and said "y'know what? im never going to be normal, i might as well give up now" but Roget Ebert DIDNT give up. Instead he kept doing what he loved doing and NEVER gave up. He is one of my main role models.

Dear Mr. Roger Ebert : As a kid, in the (1980's), I always remembered looking forward to seeing, both You & Gene Siskel, on " At The Movies ". I absolutely loved your " Banter, and Interaction ". For You Sir Roger Ebert & Gene Siskel , ( 4 ) Four Stars ! ( 2 ) Two Thumbs Up ! ! !

Brought tears to my eyes.

Even though I didn't agree with Ebert's views on a great many things, I did respect him for his ability to very clearly articulate the "how's and why's" of those views and I respected him for his passion for cinema. I don't know if I even *liked* the guy...but I do know that I respected him. And I have a hell of a lot of respect for his wife. Not many people would do what she did for as long as she did...there are just a lot of petty and selfish people nowadays.
