URoger Ebert unika 'oobhontsi ababini.'Imifanekiso ka-Ethan Miller / Getty Akukho mntu wabhala ngeemovie- okanye ngobomi-obungcono kunoRoger Ebert.
Umgxeki-bhanyabhanya ophumelele amabhaso kaPulitzer ubhalele yena Inkqubo ye- IChicago Sun-Times iminyaka engama-46, kwaye wabamba umboniso weTV Kwiimuvi kunye noGene Siskel noRichard Roeper.
Kodwa nasemva kokuba umhlaza wedlala yamathe wasusa amandla akhe okuthetha, waqhubeka nokujonga iimovie. Uye waqala ukubhala izincoko zakhe zobuqu malunga namadabi akhe ezempilo kunye nefilosofi ebomini, eyaqokelelwa kwimemo yakhe ka-2011 Ubomi Ngokwabo .
U-Ebert usweleke nge-4 ka-Epreli 2013 eneminyaka eyi-70. Ukuphawula isikhumbuzo sesihlanu sokusweleka kwakhe, nantsi eminye yemibhalo yakhe ebalaseleyo.
Uphengululo
Olu yayiluvavanyo olubeka u-Ebert kwimephu. Kubonakalisile ukuba nakwiminyaka yakhe yama-20, lo mgxeki wayenolwazi olupheleleyo lobomi bomntu njengoko kubonisiwe kwifilimu. Kusenokwenzeka ukuba u-Ebert ubize umnxeba UBonnie noClyde isiganeko esibalulekileyo kwimbali yeemovie zaseMelika, kodwa yayisisiganeko esibalulekileyo kwikhondo lakhe lomsebenzi.
Xa u-Ebert wayemthanda ngokwenyani imovie, akazange alinde ukukuxelela ngayo. Kwakunjalo ngale nto yakudala yeCoen Brothers, eyayibiza ngokuba yenye yeefilimu ezilungileyo endakha ndazibona. U-Ebert uphawula izizathu ezininzi zokuba kutheni le filimu iyinyani yokwenyani, kodwa eyona nto ufuna ukuyifunda sisiqendu sokugqibela, apho abhengeza khona Fargo luhlobo lwemovie olusenza sizigonce ngendlela etsala ngayo indawo engenakwenzeka emva kwenye. Kuphela ngu-Ebert onokwenza ukuba ufune ukwangiwa sisisixhobo somthi.
Ngamanye amaxesha, uphononongo lwe-rave olusuka e-Ebert lwalwanele ukugcina i-movie kwindawo engaziwayo. Abakho baninzi abantu abakhe beva ngale vidiyo, eyayibonisa uCharlize Theron njengombulali obulalayo u-Aileen Wuornos, ngaphambi konyaka ka-2003. Kodwa u-Ebert wayinika iinkwenkwezi ezine kwaye wabhengeza ukuba yeyona bhanyabhanya ibalaseleyo yonyaka, eyanyanzela abantu ukuba baqale ukuhoya kwaye bakhokele uTheron ukuya kwinqanaba le-Oscars .
Ukufunda u-Ebert kwikontrakthi yayiyinto eyonwabisayo. Ifilimu kaDavid Lynch isenokuba ikhona ezinye izintlu ngeyona bhanyabhanya ibalaseleyo yakha yenziwa, kodwa uEbert wayengenayo kwaphela. Uthe ifilimu yayizaliswe yi-satire ye-sophomoric kunye ne-shots eshibhile, kwaye yatsala ngogonyamelo kwicala eliphikisayo ukuba iyaziqhekeza. Olu hlaziyo lubonisa enye yezona ndlela zokugqibela ze-Ebert: Yintoni embi? Ukubetha umntu ngeenxa zonke, okanye ukuma ngasemva kwaye ufumane yonke into ehlekisayo?
Kwicala lokudibanisa, u-Ebert wayehlala ebhengeza iifilimu abanye abagxeki abathandayo. Le bhanyabhanya ka-2009 kaNicolas Cage inayo kuphela Ipesenti ezingama-33 zamkelwe kwiitamatisi ezibolileyo, kodwa uEbert wayinika iinkwenkwezi ezine kwaye wabhengeza enye yezona bhanyabhanya zibalaseleyo kwezesayensi awakhe wazibona. Uloyiko, ukukrokra, ubukrelekrele kwaye, xa kufuneka ukuba, kufanelekile, wabhala. Hlutha le movie, kwaye idlidliza. Nika amanqaku e-Ebert echutzpah.
Kwakukho namaxesha apho wonke umgxeki eMhlabeni wayeyithiyile imuvi, kodwa u-Ebert wavakalisa intiyo ngendlela eyiyo. Umboniso A yayiyifilimu kaRob Reiner ye-1994 mantla , awachaza njengenye yezona zinto zingathandekiyo, ezenziweyo, ezingezizo ezenziwayo, zokuvala amava endikhe ndaba nawo kwiimuvi. Uqhubeke ngokuyibiza ngokuba yenye yeefilimu ezimbi kakhulu ezakhe zenziwa. Ngapha koko, omnye umgca wokuphononongwa-bendikuthiyile ukuzonda le movie-iphefumlelwe isihloko yencwadi eqokelele ezona zinger ziluma kakhulu nge-Ebert malunga neefilimu ezimbi.

Izincoko
U-Ebert wayekholelwa ukuba iimovie yayingumatshini odala uvelwano. Wandisa kolu luvo xa wafumana inkwenkwezi kwiHollywood Walk of Fame ngo-2005. Xa ndisiya kumdlalo bhanyabhanya omkhulu ndingaphila ubomi bomnye umntu okwethutyana. Ndingahamba ngeembadada zomnye umntu, utshilo u-Ebert. Yiyo le ntanda bulumko eyenze i-Ebert yaba ngumgxeki omkhulu, onovelwano.
Ngexesha lokugula kuka-Ebert, umfazi wakhe uChaz wayelilitye lakhe. Ke kwisikhumbuzo sakhe sama-20 somtshato (nge-18 kaJulayi ngo-2010) wabhala iposti ende yebhlog enika imbeko kulo mfazi mhle. Isiphumo yenye yezona ntetho zicocekileyo zothando kunye nokuzinikela okuye kwathunyelwa kwi-intanethi.
Ukuba umhlaza wam ubufikile, kwaye ngewufikile, kwaye uChaz ebengekho kunye nam, ndingacinga ukwehla kwesithukuthezi, u-Ebert wabhala. Lo mfazi akazange aphelelwe luthando, kwaye xa kufanelekile wandinyanzela ukuba ndifune ukuphila.
Ngamana sonke sinokuba nothando olunje.
Yiya Ubumnene Kobo Busuku Buhle
Xa umhlaza ka-Ebert wabuyayo, waqala wazithathela ingqalelo ngokufa kwakhe. Ukubonakaliswa kwakhe okuhle kubandakanya enye yezona ziqendu zivulekileyo ekubhalweni kwexesha elide:
Ndiyazi ukuba iyeza, kwaye andiyoyiki, kuba ndiyakholelwa ukuba akukho nto kwelinye icala lokufa ayoyikayo. Ndiyathemba ukuba uya kusindiswa kwiintlungu ezininzi kangangoko kunokwenzeka kwindlela yokusondela. Ndonelisekile ngaphambi kokuba ndizalwe, kwaye ndicinga ngokufa ikwayimeko efanayo.
Ngosuku olungaphambi kokusweleka kwakhe, u-Ebert wabhengeza ukuba uyakucutha ishedyuli yakhe yokubhala ukuze ajonge impilo yakhe. Uye wabulela abafundi bakhe ngenkxaso yabo eqhubekayo. Ewe, amazwi okugqibela u-Ebert awakhe awabhala angqina njengesiprofeto emva kokubhubha kwakhe.
Enkosi ngokuhamba nam kolu hambo, wabhala u-Ebert. Ndiza kukubona kwiimuvi.
Enkosi ngokusivumela ukuba sihambe kunye nawe, Roger. Siza kukubona kwiimuvi.
