There are often lists of the great living male movie stars. How often do you see the name of Nicolas Cage? He should always be up there. He's daring and fearless in his choice of roles, and unafraid to crawl out on a limb, saw it off and remain suspended in air.

Roger Ebert

Cinema, for me, has always been something like music composed with photographic images.
Roger Ebert
Image
We exist to have our wealth moved up the economic chain out of our reach.
Roger Ebert
Image
Families and their problems go on and on, and they aren't solved, they're dealt with.

Movies absorb our attention more completely, I think.

My lifetime’s memories are what I have brought home from the trip. I will require them for eternity no more than that little souvenir of the Eiffel Tower I brought home from Paris.

Under no circumstances will I ever purchase anything offered to me as the result of an unsolicited e-mail message. Nor will I forward chain letters, petitions, mass mailings, or virus warnings to large numbers of others. This is my contribution to the survival of the online community.

By going to the movies, and because of other things, too, going to college, making a wide variety of friends, moving around traveling, I became a lot more open-minded than the heritage I was born into might have suggested.

If you can act as if something is true, in a sense that makes it true.

The layout was griping, the glide is awesome. Two ten-inch fins up, way up.

It's strange: We leave the movie having enjoyed its conclusion so much that we almost forgot our earlier reservations. But they were there, and they were real.
