👍🏽Thumbs up to a life lived with purpose.⁣
From the Quad to the Pulitzer, Roger Ebert, ’64 MEDIA, turned a love of storytelling into a legendary career.⁣
⁣
This week, we celebrate his legacy at #Ebertfest—right here in Champaign, at the Virginia Theatre.⁣
⁣
He got his start writing for The Daily Illini and never looked back. Come honor the townie who made movies matter.🎬⁣
