Roger Ebert, 70, dies, celebrated film critic.

Roger Ebert dead: Film critic had the soul of a poet

"It was reviewing movies that made Roger Ebert as famous and wealthy as many of the stars who felt the sting or caress of his pen or were the recipients of his televised thumbs-up or thumbs-down judgments. But in his words and in his life he displayed the soul of a poet whose passions and interests extended far beyond the darkened theaters where he spent so much of his professional life."
-Chicago Tribune, Rick Kogan
