LOL What does liberal have to do with this? They aren’t just my views. It’s a classic that’s taught in film schools. Period. What you personally think of it is irrelevant. I know people who don’t like Citizen Kane and 2001. They are still great films.
Actually my personal opinion is incredibly important, regardless of what you people teach to each other and repeat back and forth among you, but then I am the guy (and other observers like me) who you couldn’t believe was insightful enough to know about Ebert being liberal when you didn’t know and couldn’t see it with your own eyes.
