I feel like I've found a new home with an old friend. It's a privilege to see my byline under the Roger Ebert banner.

EbertFest's 26th year promises an exciting lineup at the Virginia Theater, celebrating Roger Ebert's legacy with screenings and panels led by filmmakers and scholars.

Justin Chang highlights three films for the holiday season: 'Nickel Boys,' 'The Brutalist,' and 'Hard Truths,' which provide thrilling yet important cinematic experiences over traditional fare.

Roger was a huge fan of the film and Tarsem's work in general. What did that mean to you guys? We thought the movie was very special. We were very proud of it. Making the movie was a profound experience that we all shared. So we thought that the movie would premiere and everyone would see what we saw in the film. There's an industry around movies that's not completely different than the art, but you know what I mean. It was a very complicated time for the film, and, for all of us, kind of confusing and painful. So to have someone we respect so much understand the film and what we were trying to do and appreciate it meant a lot.
