Abstract:
"Roger Ebert was an influential film critic in the United States, and the first to win a Pulitzer Prize. For almost fifty years, he wrote with plainspoken eloquence about films for the Chicago Sun-Times. Ebert had particular admiration for the work of director Werner Herzog, whom he first encountered at the New York Film Festival in 1968, the start of a long and productive relationship between the filmmaker and the film critic. Herzog by Ebert is a comprehensive collection of Ebert's writings about the legendary director, featuring all of his reviews of individual films, as well as longer essays he wrote for his Great Movies series. The book also brings together other essays, letters, and interviews, including a letter Ebert wrote Herzog upon learning of the dedication to him of 'Encounters at the End of the World, ' a multifaceted profile written at the 1982 Cannes Film Festival; and an interview with Herzog at Facet's Multimedia in 1979. Herzog himself contributes a foreword in which he discusses his relationship with Ebert."--Provided by the publisher.
