The Beast movie review & film summary (2024) | Roger Ebert
2024年4月3日 · The launching pad for Bertrand Bonello’s new picture “The Beast” (“La Bete”) is a 1903 short story by Henry James called “The Beast in the Jungle.” Seen by some James scholars as an autobiographical expression of rue for a life of inaction, it treats the case of John Marcher, who confides in his acquaintance May Bartram that he lives in fear of an unnamable …

Parasite movie review & film summary (2019) - Roger Ebert
2019年9月7日 · Bong has made several films about class (including “Snowpiercer” and “Okja“), but “Parasite” may be his most daring examination of the structural inequity that has come to define the world. It is a tonal juggling act that first feels like a satire—a comedy of manners that bounces a group of lovable con artists off a very wealthy family of awkward eccentrics.
Ten Greatest Films of All Time - Roger Ebert
2012年12月19日 · If I must make a list of the Ten Greatest Films of All Time, my first vow is to make the list for myself, not for anybody else. I am sure than Eisenstein’s “The Battleship Potemkin” is a great film, but it’s not going on my list simply so I can impress people. Nor will I avoid “Casablanca” simply because it’s so popular: I love it all the same.

And of course, at the center, is the Caped Crusader himself: brooding, tormented, seeking his own brand of nighttime justice in a Gotham City that’s spiraling into squalor and decay.
Noah Wyle Anchors Intense, Effective Max Medical Drama “The Pitt”
2025年1月6日 · “We need to laugh, otherwise we’d never stop crying,” says a doctor, and it’s a line that sounds scripted but true at the same time. “The Pitt” is constantly pulling between realism and fiction—the granular details of a real ER vs. making that interesting enough for TV. Dr. Robby’s constant wisdom and the “bit of everything” in the patient roster on this particular day ...
