Ya Know, Marge, Roger Ebert is One Smart Cookie


Roger Ebert is one terrific writer. I've long admired his reviews, which I'd call "essays" rather than reviews since they're so much more insightful than your typical movie criticism.

Check out his non-political V.P debate analysis here. He works in some Fargo references that are just golden as he ponders whether Sarah Palin is more like police officer Marge Gunderson or car salesman Jerry Lundegaard.

Thanks for posting this link. While I maydisagree with some of his conclusions, I found Ebert's review insightful. LOVED the Fargo references... that's one of my favorite movies!
