Book Description Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Once upon a time, if you wanted to know if a movie was worth seeing, you didnt check out Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB.You asked whether Siskel & Ebert had given it two thumbs up.On a cold Saturday afternoon in 1975, two men (who had known each other for eight years before theyd ever exchanged a word) met for lunch in a Chicago pub. Gene Siskel was the film critic for the Chicago Tribune. Roger Ebert had recently won the Pulitzer Prizethe first ever awarded to a film criticfor his work at the Chicago Sun-Times. To say they despised each other was an understatement.When they reluctantly agreed to collaborate on a new movie review show with PBS, there was at least as much sparring off-camera as on. No decisionfrom which films to cover to who would read the lead review to how to pronounce foreign titleswas made without conflict, but their often-antagonistic partnership (which later transformed into genuine friendship) made for great television. In the years that followed, their signature Two thumbs up! would become the most trusted critical brand in Hollywood.In Opposable Thumbs, award-winning editor and film critic Matt Singer eavesdrops on their iconic balcony set, detailing their rise from making a few hundred dollars a week on local Chicago PBS to securing multimillion-dollar contracts for a syndicated series (a move that convinced a young local host named Oprah Winfrey to do the same). Their partnership was cut short when Gene Siskel passed away in February of 1999 after a battle with brain cancer that hed kept secret from everyone outside his immediate familyincluding Roger Ebert, who never got to say goodbye to his longtime partner. But their influence on in the way we talk about (and think about) movies continues to this day. "Once upon a time, if you wanted to know if a movie was worth seeing, you didn't check out Rotten Tomatoes or IMDB. You asked whether Siskel & Ebert had given it "two thumbs up.""-- Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9780593540152
