I didn't always agree with Ebert, either. Example: I loved
Walker, which was one of the only films I ever saw Ebert give zero stars. Another example:
Citizen Kane itself. But that is merely a difference of opinion. I guess I lack Rall's narcissism, wherein one mistakes a personal perference for an objective truth.
