Ebert went on Oprah to talk about his new digital voice created for him, using clips of audio from previous recordings of himself. Sure it isn’t perfect, but I imagine using it is much like finally scratching an itch you’ve been trying to reach, except multiplied by a thousand.
I’ve found myself having a slightly different opinion from Ebert on many movies throughout the years, but he is still a critic I read every week to see how my critical barometer rates. It is incredibly sad to see him the way he is currently, but his writing voice seems as strong as ever. If you don’t already, I suggest you follow him on Twitter, he is probably my favorite person to read on there, due to his insights and humor.
