Roger Ebert once said Steve James made one of the best movies of his lifetime.

With Life Itself, James examines what that life was.

Roger Ebert considered himself first and foremost a journalist.

Like that book, James provides an earnest (and mostly affectionate) look at Eberts life.

The movie also tracks Siskels private decline almost as thoroughly as Eberts very public one.

This saying could defineLife Itselftoo.
